Alexander Search, an English-language Portuguese indie pop/rock band, was formed in Lisbon in late 2016 by pianist Júlio Resende and singer Salvador Sobral. The group adopted the name of one of Fernando Pessoa's heteronyms, Alexander Search, as a tribute to the renowned Portuguese author. Their self-titled debut album, Alexander Search, was released on June 30, 2017, via Sony Music, peaking at number 3 in the Portuguese charts. The band's lineup included Júlio Resende as "Augustus Search" on keyboards and piano, Daniel Neto as "Marvel K." on electric guitar, André Nascimento as "Sgt. William Byng" on electronics and keyboards, Joel Silva as "Mr. Tagus" on drums and percussion, and Salvador Sobral as "Benjamin Cymbra," although he left the band in 2020.
