Help with music from Brazil, Sweden, Chile, and Germany

Where are the folk/alternative/indepedent scene of brazilian music? We have a lot of relevant bands on those genres that are frequently performing in music festivals.

This folk band is called Vanguart, they gained a lot of space on music festivals when a single of their latest album was used as the opening theme of a soap-opera.

Vanguart - "Estive" (I've been)



Cansei de Ser Sexy, also known as CSS, experienced a moderate sucess on the international music scene but since one of their members, Adriano Cintra, (that was also the main composer), left the band on their last album they're having troubles on keeping their fans. Due to the controversy within their members, all their music videos shot on the period that Adriano was a member of the band were taken out from YouTube. Their style flerts with eletronic and pop/rock music. So here's an audio from that period.

CSS - Let's Make Love And Listen To Death From Above



Banda do Mar is the new favorite band from brazilian music festivals. They performed on the 9th Year Anniversary of my uni and are playing on Lollapalooza next month. They're a mix of rock and folk music.

Banda do Mar - "Mais Ninguém" (Anybody)



Mallu Magalhães is the vocalist of Banda do Mar and before forming the band with her husband and an old friend she had a succesful solo career. Here's one of her last singles before Banda do Mar period.

Mallu Magalhães - "Velha e Louca" (Old and Crazy)



Here's an indie brazilian singer, Mahmundi, she's from Rio and her music style flerts with eletronic music and lo-fi.

Mahmundi - "Calor do Amor" (Love's Heat)

Yeah I'm always glad when I discover an artist who never made a single homophobic and/or sexist song.

I would be curious which artists you'd present in the end. So let us know!
And if you need any further help, just let me know.
