In 1981, at 19, Fernanda Abreu had an amateur band with Leo Jaime (Nota Vermelha) and was doing contemporary saltation in the groups Coringa and Fonte. Later in that year, she coupled Blitz, a isthmus of historical grandness for Brazilian rock of the '80s. In that period she participated in albums by Plebe Rude (O Concreto Já Rachou, 1985) and Ricardo Barreto, at one time of Blitz (Prisioneiros do Ar, 1986). After the adjournment of the band in 1986, Abreu gradually structured her solo career, preparing material, doing shows, and recording with Fausto Fawcett, Laufer, and Serginho Mekler. In 1989, having already written some originals, she met Herbert Vianna (from Paralamas do Sucesso). Encouraged by him, Abreu formed a funk/disco band with Fábio Fonseca (former Nota Vermelha), Fernando Vidal (guitar), Aurélio Dias (freshwater bass), and Bodão (drums). Her first solo album, SLA Radical Dance Disco Club (1990), was produced by Herbert Vianna and Fábio Fonseca and had a strike with "A Noite" (Abreu/Luís Stein/Laufer). Her second gear album, SLA2/Be Sample (1992), was one of the earliest Brazilian pop records to extensively employ the taste-tester, and had success with "Rio de Janeiro 40 Graus" (Abreu/Fausto Fawcett/Laufer). Since then, considered the number 1 noblewoman of the Brazilian disco, Abreu became the most pop distaff funk vocalist with Da Lata, which had "Veneno da Lata" (Abreu/Will Mowat), "Garota Sangue Bom" (Abreu/ Fawcett), and "Brazil É o País do Suíngue" ( Vianna).
