Banda UÓ was born from the passion for tropical rhythms. In october 2010 Mateus Carrilho and Davi Sabbag made a fictitious band and a video with a portuguese tecnobrega version of "Teenage Dream" (Katy Perry) as a way to spread a party. They party ended up being the most crowded in the history of their town (Goiânia) and they decided to keep up with the band, calling Candy Mel to seal the group with her hot chocolate "brasility".

They released their first EP named "Me Emoldurei de Presente Pra Te Ter" (I Framed Myself As a Gift To Get Ya) with portuguese tecnobrega fusion versions os international songs. The band appeared in more than 300 blogs around the world such as Big Stereo, Mad Decent and MTV Iggy, newspappers and magazines like Rolling Stone. They've won a Brazilian VMA for their single "Shake de Amor" and are now producing their first full-lenght album.
