Today you find me at work at the hotel, waiting for some lawyers to finish their meeting so I can go in and clean the room. Since I am currently the only caterer here, and I have some time to spare, let me take this time to tell you about a band I've been listening to lately.
Cansei De Ser Sexy means "tired of being sexy" in Portuguese, and it is also the name of a stylish young band from Sao Paulo, Brazil. The group, called CSS for short, got together through an internet networking website, similar to a South American Myspace. While they all knew that they wanted to play music, upon their first meeting few of them actually knew how to play a musical instrument. Musical roles were assigned through just plain fucking around, figuring out who could play what better than anyone else. The lead vocalist, known as Lovefoxxx, became the band's singer/rapper when she showed up to practice one day without her guitar and opted to shout irreverent, pop-culture savvy rhymes over a microphone. The group's talents were tied together by Adriano Cintra, the band's producer, multi-instrumentalist and lone male, and one hell of a progressive-electronic-dance-rock outfit was born.
