Genesis and Ascent
223°'s origins trace back to Porto Alegre, Brazil, where the band's core members, Bruno Schmidt and Davi Sabbag, forged an unbreakable musical bond. Their shared love for indie rock, post-punk, and electronic music ignited the celestial flame within them.
With the addition of bassist Lucas Arruda and drummer Bruno Medina, 223°'s lineup was complete. Their debut single, "Querido Amigo," resonated with listeners, showcasing their ability to craft intimate and thought-provoking music.
The Celestial Symphony
The band's subsequent releases further cemented their status as musical trailblazers. Their EP, "Aurora," introduced the world to "Amor Doutro Mundo," a haunting and ethereal masterpiece that propelled them to international recognition.
223°'s full-length album, "Cosmos," was a cosmic tapestry of musical exploration. Its introspective lyrics delved into themes of love, loss, and the human condition, while their experimental soundscapes transported listeners to a realm beyond the ordinary.

Undeterred, the band remained true to their artistic vision. Their refusal to conform to industry norms earned them both admiration and controversy, but it also solidified their reputation as fearless innovators.
