Dazaranha is a rock band from Florianópolis, South Brazil. The band began in August 1992, and it was distinguished in the musical scene because of two things: its uncommon line up, with violin and percussion allied to traditional instruments of pop rock; and songs that sound like a combination of 70s rock and reggae. In 1994, they recorded the song "Retroprojetor" for the compilation "Ilha de Todos os Sons", with another bands of Florianópolis.
