Bixo da Seda (formerly known as Liverpool and then Liverpool Sound) was a Brazilian rock band formed in Porto Alegre in 1967.
After participating in some festivals, they moved to Rio de Janeiro after signing up with a major label. They recorded one studio album (Por Favor, Sucesso) and some singles, but broke up in 1972. One year later, they returned and moved to Rio once again, where they recorded their second, self-titled album. They also started to tour Brazil. In 1980, they broke up again due to financial woes. From the end of the 1990s onward, they would reunite several other times.
