Charlie Brown Jr
Brazilian rock band Charlie Brown Jr. rose to prominence in the late 1990s. The group, who were heavily influenced by bands such as Rage Against the Machine and Red Hot Chilli Peppers, signed to Virgin Records in 1997 and had a string of number one records in their home country. Charlie Brown Jr. are best known for their debut album 'Transpiração Contínua Prolongada', an album which went straight to number one in the Brazilian charts and remains their most commercially successful recording to date.
In 2005 following an intensive period of recording and performing three of the band members, including founder member and bass player Luiz Duarte, decided to leave the band citing artistic differences. A revamped version of the band continued to tour Brazil and the US until in 2013 when lead singer Alexandre Abrão was found dead in his hotel room from an accidental overdose of cocaine. Six months later Duarte, who had rejoined the band in 2011, was also found dead having shot himself. With the two key members of Charlie Brown Jr. deceased, the group officially disbanded in 2013.
