Sandy e Junior are Brazilian sertaneja superstars who are celebrating their 30th anniversary of their first TV performance. Having sold more than 20 million albums, Sandy e Junior are among the best-selling Brazilian artists of all time.

The children of Xororó, of popular sertaneja duo Chitãozinho & Xororó, have been stars since their first childhood recording Maria Chiquinha was released in 1991.

A string of albums led by Era Uma Vez…Ao Vivo in 1998 and a Globo television series made them turn-of-the-century teen superstars.

The duo split up with an MTV Unplugged album in 2007.
