Biography

Primas Miranda was a sertanejo duo formed by cousins Sérgia Aparecida Miranda Pontes Câmara and Maria do Carmo S'Antana Cippolli. Born in Catanduva, São Paulo, in 1940, they began their musical careers in childhood, singing at church festivals and local radio shows.

The duo's talent caught the attention of producers, leading them to record their first album in 1959, featuring the hits "Aliança Contrariada" and "Gotinhas de Saudade". Throughout their initial career, which lasted until 1964, Primas Miranda participated in various radio and television programs and performed shows all over Brazil, establishing themselves as one of the female voices of sertanejo music at the time.

After a long period away from the stage, the duo returned to the musical scene in the early 2000s, recording a new CD with re-recordings of their hits and songs by other composers, reaffirming their legacy in Brazilian sertanejo music.
