Kaoma was a French–Brazilian band. It was created in 1989 and responsible for successfully launching the lambada musical style in Europe. In a 10-year period from 1989 until the band's disbandment in 1999, Kaoma released three albums, and the band's biggest success was the 1989 song "Lambada", which topped the charts in many countries.
