Английская Википедия:A Banca
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Distinguish Шаблон:Infobox musical artist A Banca (Portuguese for "The Stand") was a very short-lived Brazilian alternative rock band from Santos, São Paulo, composed mostly by former Charlie Brown Jr. members and described as a "spiritual successor" of it.
History
Following the break-up of Charlie Brown Jr., caused by the death of vocalist Chorão due to a cocaine overdose on March 6, 2013,[1] the remaining members of the band (guitarists Thiago Castanho and Marcão, drummer Bruno Graveto and bassist Champignon) decided to form a new musical project that would serve as a tribute act both to Charlie Brown Jr. and Chorão, dubbing it "A Banca" (literally translated to English as "The Stand") in allusion to a Brazilian street slang referring to a gathering of friends – i.e., "Charlie Brown Jr.'s friends".[2] (Coincidentally, "A Banca" is also the name of a song by Charlie Brown Jr. from their 2000 album Nadando com os Tubarões.) The only bandmember not originally from Charlie Brown Jr. was bassist Helena "Lena" Papini.[3]
The band's first rehearsal was watched and approved by Chorão's son,[4] and they made their official debut on Serginho Groisman's variety show Altas Horas on April 11, 2013. In May they announced their nationwide Chorão Eterno Tour in tribute to Chorão,[5] in which they covered Charlie Brown Jr.'s greatest hits and also played new compositions. In August they released the single "O Novo Passo",[6][7][8] chosen by Rolling Stone Brasil one of the best Brazilian songs of the year.[9] The band played its final show in São Vicente in late August,[10] and in early September vocalist Champignon announced that their first full-length album was scheduled to be released in early 2014.[11]
Despite their apparent success, ever since its inception A Banca was overshadowed by controversy; a parcel of Charlie Brown Jr. fans criticized Champignon for "not respecting Chorão's death" and "not mourning it properly", going to the point of dismissing him as a "cash-grabber", a "traitor" and a "Judas".[12] Even though Champignon always vehemently denied such claims,[13] constant criticism eventually lead him to sink into a major depression,[14] and on September 9, 2013, he committed suicide by shooting himself in the head with a .380 ACP pistol, effectively ending A Banca.[15][16]
By 2014 the remaining members of A Banca (Castanho excepted) formed a new project, D'Chapas, alongside vocalist Ivan Sader,[17][18][19] and with Pinguim Ruas (also a former member of Charlie Brown Jr.), Papini and Marcão formed Bula.[20] Papini left Bula in late 2019.
