Titãs (; ) are a Brazilian rock band from São Paulo. Though they primarily are classified as a rock band, the band have also experimented with genres such as new wave, punk rock, ska, grunge, MPB and electronic music throughout their career

Titãs's initial nine member lineup was composed of vocalists Branco Mello, Ciro Pessoa, and Arnaldo Antunes, guitarists Marcelo Fromer and Tony Bellotto, keyboardist and vocalist Sérgio Britto, multi instrumentalist and vocalist Paulo Miklos, bassist and vocalist Nando Reis, and drummer André Jung, with each member (except for Jung, Fromer, and initially Bellotto), alternating between lead and backing vocals. By 1985, both Pessoa and Jung had left the band, with Charles Gavin replacing Jung shortly after the release of the band's debut album Titãs.
