Nativus - Nativus

Natiruts formed in 1996 after a barbecue in which lead vocalist Alexandre Carlo proposed the idea of popularizing reggae in Brazil. The band changed its name several times in its early stages, beginning with the name Nativus, which was already taken, then to Os Nativos, then to Natiruts Reggae Power Ao Vivo, which was later shortened to Natiruts.

Natiruts has released six studio albums and five live albums during a career spanning three decades. The group released its debut album Nativus in 1997.
