The group was formed in 1966 by Arnaldo Baptista, Rita Lee and Sérgio Dias. In its origins, Os Mutantes combined influences from the psychedelic acts of the English-speaking world such as The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix and Sly & the Family Stone with bossa nova, tropicália, samba and the cultural legacy of the Brazilian art avant-garde of the modernist movement.

Throughout his career, the group collaborated with artists such as Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Tom Zé, Nara Leao and Gal Costa. During its time of maximum production, it got to publish five discs, before Rita Lee left the group to undertake a career of soloist in 1972.
