Pena Branca & Xavantinho (1962 - 1999) were the artistic names of José Ramiro Sobrinho e Ranulfo Ramiro da Silva, one of Brazil’s most original and artistic duos in sertaneja (country) music. The brothers were also celebrated for innovatively including in their repertory pieces by urban composers like Djavan, Caetano Veloso, and Milton Nascimento. Their version of “Cio da Terra” by Chico Buarque and Milton Nascimento became a big hit in the 1980s.
