At first, the band was composed of Mylla Karvalho, Lenne Bandeira and Charles Cill, who together recorded the band’s first CD. Later, Charles leaves the band, opening space for Ricardinho, who entered and recorded 2 CDs and one DVD with the band before exchanging places with Charles again, who now recorded another DVD with the band, alonside two more albums. In 2007, Lenne no longer plays with the band, leaving them without a lead singer. After some search, they picked Simara Pires, who were a forró singer beforehand. Amidst this change, Allan Clistenes also entered the band, completing a total of four vocalists, resulting in the recording of one more album and DVD. In 2008, Mylla left the band and Rose Sales picked her spot, but not for long: she also left in mid 2008.
The band is commonly known for its criativity in its shows: in their first DVD, Mylla Karvalho entered the stage by bungee-jumping; in the second, she enters the stage using an elevator-like apparatus wearing a phoenix costume.
The band is altogether managed by Premier Produções, a brazilian company.

No celular
Se quer me conquistar
Se quer me namorar...
Esse garoto
É metido a Playboy
Tem jeito de bacana
Que tem grana
Chega no seu carro
No meio da multidão
E liga o som...
Pedaço de Brad Pitt
Pedaço de Gianecchini
Pedaço de mal caminho
Ele é pura sedução
As meninas já tão
Passando mal
Com gosto de quero mais...
Pediu meu telefone
E disse que eu era linda
E disse mais ainda
Que queria o meu amor
Celular danou-se a tocar
Chamada à cobrar
Não me ligue à cobrar
No celular
Se quer me conquistar
Se quer me namorar...
Não me ligue à cobrar
No celular
Se quer me conquistar
Se quer me namorar...
Esse garoto
É metido a Playboy
Tem jeito de bacana
Que tem grana
Que só quer se divertir
Chega no seu carro
No meio da multidão
E liga o som...
Pedaço de Brad Pitt
Pedaço de Gianecchini
Pedaço de mal caminho
Ele é pura sedução
As meninas já tão
Passando mal
Com gosto de quero mais...
Pediu meu telefone
E disse que eu era linda
E disse mais ainda
Que queria o meu amor
Celular danou-se a tocar
Chamada à cobrar
Não me ligue à cobrar
No celular
Se quer me conquistar
Se quer me namorar...
Não me ligue à cobrar

Se quer me namorar...

Se quer me conquistar
Se quer me namorar...
The lyrics to Companhia do Calypso's song Ligação a Cobrar tells the story of a girl who is being pursued by a boy who is flashy and has a lot of money. She is hesitant to give him her number but eventually gives in. The boy then proceeds to call her on her cellphone and make a collect call, which she is not pleased about. The girl wants the boy to prove himself and woo her in other ways instead of just showing off his wealth.
The song highlights the stereotype of a flashy, rich boy who only cares about having fun and showing off to attract girls' attention. The girl in the song is portrayed as smart and not easily swayed by these superficial things. She wants to be courted and won over by genuine effort and affection. The mention of Brad Pitt and Gianecchini, popular actors known for their good looks and charm, adds to the image of the boy being a player and trying to use his looks and money to get what he wants.
Overall, the lyrics to Ligação a Cobrar convey a message about the importance of genuine effort and affection in relationships, rather than just relying on material possessions and superficial attractiveness.
