Boogarins Joins the Group of Sepultura and Cansei de Ser Sexy with Solid International Reputation

In the 2013-2014 season we saw two friends from the city of Goiânia go through their teen years writing songs to later produce an album on their own.

They had a name for the band, Boogarins.

The group, however, had not even been formed because one of its members spent his time locked in his room or improving the editing of songs or randomly sending them to his favourites blogs of indie rock, often American and English.

That was how the album caught the attention of an American producer who two days after hearing one of the songs was chatting with the boy on Facebook.

It did not take long for the album "Plantas que Curam" was release in the United States, distributed in Europe and it took Boogarins - now a quartet - for an extensive world tour that included important festivals such as South by Southwest, in Texas, and the Primavera Sound, in Barcelona.

In Brazil, there was no one interested in releasing the album.

Today's chapter marks the beginning of the 2015/2016 season.

This Friday (30), Boogarins' second album "Manual ou Guia Livre de Dissolução dos Sonhos" hit the stores.

When the band appeared at the end of 2013 it was in tune with a young, international scene of psychedelic guitars and colourful topics sung by something like a cat's meow in form of vocals.

A psychedelic "zeitgeist" well represented worldwide by Australia's Tame Impala. And the old Brazilian band Mutantes was the real inspiration.
