Charlie Brown Jr.

Formed in 1992 in Santos Beach (SãoPaulo), the name Charlie Brown came up when Chorão was driving home thinking of a name for his band and ended up running over a coconut water stand with a Peanuts Charlie Brown draw. Chorão, had an insight and believed that situation was a sign of the Universe and that embarrassed character from the Snoopy cartoon would be a cool name for the band. The Jr. (Junior) was added a little later, in the words of Chorão, "because we are children of rock", inspired by rock musicians such as Red Hot,  Nirvana, Suicidal Tendencies, Raimundos, Planet Hemp, O Rappa, among others.
