It was the first performance of Jota Quest on TV. On 11 January 1997, they were invited by the presenter Xuxa to perform at what was then called 'Xuxa Hits', belonged to Rede Globo television.

Even with the success, it took a while to they be shown on television. Another hit from their first album was 'Encontrar Alguém' ('To Meet Someone'), a very disco. On this first tour, the band members came on stage wearing 'black power' wigs. It quickly entered the charts, followed by other singles, while the band toured Brazil. The bar band's most successful song is their rendition of 'As Dores do Mundo' ('Pains of the World'), a huge hit by Bahian soulman Hyldon in the '70s. Next the contract with Sony Music came, and then the first official CD was released in August 1996. At the time, the group played through the circuit of bars and schools of Belo Horizonte and gathered more than 2,000 people per show. Quest inspired by the cartoon Jonny Quest, the idea bassist PJ (though none of the members was a fan of that Cartoon).

Jota Quest sold over 4,000,000 copies in Brazil, Latin America and Portugal. Eventually the band exposed its Clube da Esquina influences, including collaborations with Minas Gerais exponents Paulinho Pedra Azul and Milton Nascimento in Oxigenio as well as jams with 14 Bis and a collaboration with Roberto Carlos over his hit single 'Alem do Horizonte'.

Jota Quest initially stood apart from Minas Gerais' musical tradition by garnering national success with pop rock and blue eyed soul-tinged pop. The band members include: Rogério Flausino (vocals), Marco Túlio (guitar), Márcio Buzelin (keyboards), 'PJ' – Paulo Roberto Diniz, Jr. Quest, but due to trademark issues with Hanna-Barbera, they renamed themselves Jota Quest ( jota being the Portuguese name for the letter j). The band was founded in 1995, in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais as J.
