Artist History "We are not a rock band. Neither are we a 'forró' band. Much less a folk group. Our roots: they are in the mud of Pernambuco, which we are made of. Our influences: we are suburban guys from the periphery of Recife, fertilized by the industrial winds blowing all over the planet. - To tell the truth, we are crazy about music! We are the group Cascabulho!" José Manoel de Lemos Pereira
