Tribalistas

Tribalistas was formed in 2001, when Marisa Monte, Arnaldo Antunes and Carlinhos Brown joined in Bahia. It was not the first time they worked together, but this time they did so with a clear idea: to do something together. In less than a month, they wrote twenty songs and selected thirteen to record. Everything was fast, as if they had no time for anything else. They recorded them in thirteen days, one by one.The album was released in 2002, first in Brazil, then around the world. It sold over a million copies just there, and spread to Europe. Some songs were re-recorded on DVD, with videos and interviews. They did not do a tour, but they performed at the Latin Grammy, on an Arnaldo DVD and in an open show at the Sarau do Brown. Marisa included some songs in her tours, which were well received.The album was secretly recorded in Marisa's house in Rio. It was a special project, with a sound that mixed pop, rock and MPB. Although they did not call it that, the album received very good reception, both in Brazil and abroad. In 2003 it received five nominations for the Latin Grammy and won one. It also received a BBC award. It was the first album of the trio, and the only one called that way until 2017, when they released another with the same name.
