Career

2010–2011: Formation and debut album

The singer Chay Suede participated in the fifth season of the Brazilian reality show Ídolos[8] and, shortly after being eliminated from the TV show in September 2010, was already considered to integrate the cast of the telenovela, due to its popularity with the public.[9] Only at the end of October would be announced the actors that would interpret the protagonists and form the band.[10]

The Brazilian band NX Zero had a great participation in the production of the album. The opening song, recorded by the six protagonists on 14 March 2011, was composed by Di Ferrero,[11] lead singer of the band, the guitarist Gee Rocha and the producer Rick Bonadio,[12] that also composed songs that were included in the band's first album, released in 23 September 2011.[3][13] Do Jeito Que Eu Sou was released as the first single from the album, plus an acoustic version, originally included on the album Rebeldes as a bonus track.[14][15] On 6 November 2011, on the stage of the Programa do Gugu, the band won their first gold record, corresponding to the brand of 50,000 sold copies of the album Rebeldes, certified by the Brazilian Association of Record Producers (ABPD).[16] The members said they dream of a national tour, since their family and friends never attended a show of the band.[17] The tour began in Porto Alegre in October 2011, with a show that had participation of the pop singer Manu Gavassi. The tour was held under the title of Rebeldes Teen Festival.[18] Currently, the album has sold approximately 240,000 copies and is certified with Platinum.

In March 2012, the band announced the first CD and DVD live, released on 11 April 2012 and titled as Rebeldes - Ao vivo.
