"Polimorphic, hydrid, independent, yabba-dabba-doo rock. it's the ideological mutilation thru the regressive bossa nova of California Black. Funkadelic aliens, those four guys got together for a mix of ideas."

In 2003, four guys decided that living in Brazil (musically speaking) kind sucked. So they decided to form a band to play the things they really liked. So California Black came to be. Johnny (vocals), Dax (guitars), Pedro (bass) and Gus (drums). A powerful rock'n'roll power-trio influenced by the sounds of California (like Red Hot Chilli Peppers, surf music and the classical punk rock of the Dead Kennedys) and also by the immense influence of Black Sabbath.

We are together for only one year, so we had few oportunities to play live. But yes we do, and yes we live for it. Playing live is the best thing.

Black Sabbath, red hot chilli peppers, beach boys, surf music, pixies, nirvana, funk, black music, dead kennedys, stooges...

it's a power trio: one guitar, one bass, one drum kit. And the vocals.
