Simple bases and incredible melodies are the marks of the End of Pipe, band of Florianópolis/SC – Brazil, formed on March 2006 by old friends who had always enjoyed sonorous tracks of surf and skate films.
Everything started when Uirá (voice/guitar) and Gabriel”Gabito”(guitar) decided to form a new band and invite Rafael ”Tanga” and Cristiano”Crast”, old friends of Uirá, to play the bass and drums, respectively. Soon in the first meeting it was easy to verify there was harmony among the 4 members. Since November 2007, the band has called another drummer, Adriano (Pingüim), to try going forward with new ideas and music influences.
The band all related approaches subjects that make people to stop and to reflect, about the problems the society in general is going through, as well as the situations of our day-by-day life.
