Pato Fu is a Brazilian band from Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil formed in 1992. The band is composed of Fernanda Takai (guitar and vocals), John Ulhoa (guitar, vocals, keyboards and programming), Ricardo Koctus (bass and vocals), Xande Tamietti (drums) and Lulu Camargo (keyboards). Their first album, Rotomusic de Liquidificapum, was released in 1993. Since then, they have released another eight: Gol de Quem?, Tem Mas Acabou, Televisão de Cachorro, Isopor, Ruído Rosa, MTV ao Vivo: No Museu de Arte da Pampulha, Toda Cura para Todo Mal and Daqui pro Futuro. The band's popularity began to increase along with two other groups from Belo Horizonte, Jota Quest and Skank. The band plays pop-rock but frequently resorts to electronic music elements as well. Pato Fu is often said to be influenced by Os Mutantes, a famous Brazilian tropicalist group from the 1960s, probably because of the experimentalism found in both bands' songs. One can find in Pato Fu musical influences by Devo, The Cure,
