We are Carnaval, we are Bahia

In light of celebrating the wonderful week of Carnaval in Brazil, Talonline decided to share some information regarding the most famous celebrations around Brazil. The Carnaval in Salvador is known for its trios elétricos, huge truck-like vehicles that parade in two different circuits around the city. These cars transport famous Axé bands while they play songs for the public, who electrically follow the vehicle while dancing. This style of Carnaval was invented in 1950 when Dodô e Osmar embedded stereos on a car and drove around the city while they  played their songs.
