'''TH6''' was a Brazilian [[alternative rock]] band from [[Santos, São Paulo]].
==History==
Following his departure from his previous band [[Charlie Brown Jr. (band)|Charlie Brown Jr.]] in 2005 amid numerous creative divergences and clashes with vocalist [[Chorão]], former guitarist [[Marcão Britto|Marcão]] decided that he wanted to continue pursuing musical projects, and after a brief hiatus gathered with long-time friend Juninho (with whom he had played in a band prior to Charlie Brown Jr.'s existence), Filipe Costa and Tite Martins to form a project.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.entermagazine.com.br/site/entersom/index.asp?id=2942&area=4&p=visualizar|title=TH6: nova banda do ex-guitarrista do CBJr.|work=Enter Magazine|date=December 8, 2008|access-date=March 28, 2020|language=Portuguese}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gazetadopovo.com.br/caderno-g/e-um-privilegio-tocar-com-o-vocal-do-iron-maiden-diz-ex-charlie-brown-sobre-novo-projeto-b5qmd50j5c0y2qif79zndsxu6/|title='É um privilégio tocar com o vocal do Iron Maiden', diz ex-Charlie Brown sobre novo projeto|work=[[Gazeta do Povo]]|date=September 3, 2008|access-date=October 29, 2023|language=Portuguese}}</ref> In an interview he would explain that the band's name was an allusion to the fact that one of their first rehearsals happened on a Thursday the 6th, and that it would be "catchy and easy to remember".<ref name="Entrevista">{{cite web|url=https://www.cifraclubnews.com.br/entrevistas/8031-marcao-ex-charlie-brown-jr-apresenta-sua-nova-banda-th6.html|title=Marcão, ex-Charlie Brown Jr., apresenta sua nova banda TH6|work=Cifra Club News|date=April 9, 2007|access-date=March 26, 2020|language=Portuguese}}</ref>
Around 2007 the group began working on their first songs, uploading them on their official [[Myspace]] profile; in less than three months, all songs reached over 400,000 downloads combined.<ref name="Entrevista"/> Shortly afterwards they announced they would be releasing their first album, and the replacement of original bassist Juninho by Lenon Scarpa.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://rollingstone.uol.com.br/edicao/22/comecar-de-novo/|title=Começar de novo|work=[[Rolling Stone|Rolling Stone Brasil]]|author=Pablo Miyazawa|date=July 8, 2008|access-date=March 26, 2020|language=Portuguese}}</ref>
''[[Contra Insetos Parasitas]]'' ultimately came out on July 28, 2008, initially through their Myspace page,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://ultimosegundo.ig.com.br/cultura/musica/banda-de-excharlie-brown-jr-coloca-disco-na-rede/n1237690151078.html|title=Banda de ex-Charlie Brown Jr. coloca disco na rede|work=[[Internet Group|iG]]|date=July 28, 2008|access-date=March 28, 2020|language=Portuguese}}</ref> and physically on October 14.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cifraclubnews.com.br/noticias/15077-marcao-ex-cbjr-lanca-cd-do-th6-com-parceria-de-nx-zero-e-mais.html|title=Marcão, ex-CBJr., lança CD do TH6 com parceria de NX Zero e mais|work=Cifra Club News|date=October 14, 2008|access-date=March 28, 2020|language=Portuguese}}</ref> Produced by Marcão alongside frequent Charlie Brown Jr. collaborator [[Tadeu Patolla]], the album was positively received and counted with guest appearances by members of bands such as [[Detonautas Roque Clube]], [[Tihuana]], [[CPM 22]] and [[NX Zero]]. The band later came to elaborate that originally over 40 songs were recorded for the album, but only 25 were chosen; two of those outtakes were later posted on their Myspace as well.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://zp.blog.br/?m=news&id=10055|title=Banda TH6 libera músicas inéditas para audição|work=ZP|date=January 13, 2009|access-date=March 28, 2020|language=Portuguese}}</ref>
Following the birth of his son Gabriel,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://whiplash.net/materias/news_736/326758-charliebrownjr.html|title=Charlie Brown Jr. e Bula: entrevista exclusiva com Marcão para o ''podcast'' Paternidade.org|work=Whiplash.net|date=December 2, 2020|access-date=January 14, 2021|language=Portuguese}}</ref> Marcão announced in 2010 that the band would be on hiatus; however, in 2011 he was invited to rejoin Charlie Brown Jr., and following its end due to the death of Chorão he became part of the projects [[A Banca]] and [[Bula (band)|Bula]], leaving TH6's fate unknown. In 2015 their vocalist Tite Martins announced that the band would be returning (albeit without Marcão), but since then no further announcements were given.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.osgarotosdeliverpool.com.br/2015/03/entrevista-com-marcao-britto-charlie.html|title=Entrevista com Marcão Britto (Charlie Brown Jr. / Bula Rock / Urbana Legion)|work=Os Garotos de Liverpool|author=Elio Sant'Anna|date=March 3, 2015|access-date=March 26, 2020|language=Portuguese}}</ref>
