Banda do Mar is a Portuguese Brazilian band announced in May 2014 by Marcelo Camelo (vocals/guitar), his wife Mallu Magalhães (vocals/guitar) and Fred Ferreira (drums).[1] The name of the band is Portuguese for "Band of the Sea".

Their debut eponymous album was released in August 2014 and they went on tour since then in support of the record. In August 24, 2015, the band announced they were going on hiatus after the last concert of the tour, held in Lisbon in September 9, 2015.[2]

Mallu and Marcelo have been working together in their respective solo careers since they began dating in 2008, when Mallu sang "Janta" on Marcelo's debut solo album, Sou. "Janta" was chosen by Rolling Stone Brasil as the best Brazilian track that year.[3] Later, in 2011, Marcelo Camelo produced Mallu's third album, Pitanga.[4]
