Liniker e os Caramelows is a Brazilian band formed in Araraquara city, hinterland from São Paulo. The group was born from the meeting of transgender singer Liniker Barros, with Rafael Barone (bass), William Zaharanszki (electric guitar), Péricles Zuanon (drums), Márcio Bortoloti (trumpet), Renata Éssis (backing vocal) and Bárbara Rosa (in memoriam).

With musics created about letters wrote by Liniker, the band became a hit in October 2015, when released - by Youtube - three songs from a EP named Cru (band’s first work) that together have more than 10 million views.
