Revolucionnários (a Portuguese term meaning Revolutionaries Template:Bracket) was a rock ensemble originating from Santos, São Paulo, Brazil.

History

Following his departure from Charlie Brown Jr. in 2005, prompted by artistic disagreements with lead singer Chorão, bassist Champignon established Revolucionnários to assume greater autonomy over the creative process.[1] The choice of the name "Revolucionnários" symbolized a personal transformation for Champignon, with the distinctive double "N" influenced by a numerological chart provided by a friend's mother.[2][3] The first to join was drummer Pablo Silva, son of renowned percussionist Robertinho Silva, followed by guitarist Nando Martins and percussionist Diego Righi. André Fonseca initially filled the role of second guitarist but was soon replaced by Fábio Kvêra.[4][5]

In 2006, the group launched their only studio album, Retratos da Humanidade, released through Champignon's own label, Champirado Records.[6] The album was produced by Tadeu Patolla, who had previously collaborated with Charlie Brown Jr., and included popular tracks such as "Revolucionnários" and "Como num Sonho Perfeito," the latter serving as an homage to singer Rita Lee and her band Os Mutantes.[7] The song "Natureza" was inspired by Champignon's strained relationship with Chorão.[8][9] Receiving positive critical reception, the album also earned Champignon his second Multishow Brazilian Music Award in the category "Best Instrumentalist" in 2007.[10]

Although there were intentions to produce a follow-up album,[2] the band disbanded in 2008. Subsequently, Champignon briefly became part of the short-lived group Nove Mil Anjos before returning to Charlie Brown Jr. in 2011,[11] where he remained until the band dissolved in 2013 following Chorão's passing. Afterward, Champignon formed the tribute project A Banca, but tragically died by suicide on September 9, 2013.[12] According to former manager Victor Panchorra, Revolucionnários' brief existence was largely due to Champignon's impulsive financial decisions and monetary struggles following his departure from Charlie Brown Jr., a perspective shared by former bandmate Perí Carpigiani.[8][13][14]

In recognition of their impact on the local music scene, Revolucionnários received an honorable mention in Blog n' Roll's compilation of the Top 100 Greatest Bands from the Baixada Santista region in 2016.[15]
