The group started its professional career in 1980 and has won several prizes, including nine Sharp awards (the most important of Brazilian popular music awards). They've sold several million copies of the 19 albums they had recorded up to the year 2000, several of them achieving gold and platinum record status. His songs have also been adopted as the themes for widely popular soap operas.
