Som Nosso De Cada Dia - Snegs (1974) (1993)

Founded in São Paulo, Brazil in 1972 - Disbanded in 1977 - Reunited briefly between 1993-1995 and 2008-2010 and again since 2017

This progressive rock group has been formed in São Paulo in 1972 by multi-instrumentalist Manito (former The Clevers and Os Incríveis), Pedrinho Batera (drums/vocals) and bass player Pedrão Baldanza. With this formation they released their excellent debut "Snegs" in 1975. Then the band went through a multitude of line-up changes, launched a self-titled album in 1977, comprising mainly funk music and opened for Alice Cooper at the Maracanãzinho Festival (Rio de Janeiro). Soon after the band has been dissolved.

SOM NOSSO DE CADA DIA Nosso gained their biggest fame not so much with their two studio records but rather with their fantastic live performances. Hence it's most probably very much rewarding to get their live CDs released later on, especially the 2 CDs set "A Procura da Essência" containing lots of unreleased material, amonst others extracts from the ambitious suite "Amazonia", that were unfortunately never recorded in studio. At times their style can be referred to Italian bands like BANCO or PFM, but their music showed as well a strong influence by American Jazz-Rock revealing some hints to English Space-Rock.progarchives.com
