Formed in Lisbon, Portugal in November 2002 by the singer Paulo Scavullo and keyboardist Rui Pires. In the beggining of 2003 Sebastião Teixeira, the guitar player, joined the band to complete the line up. Post Hit's sound was inspired by the iconic avant garde groups from the 70's and the vibrant pop scene of the early 80's. The debut single VANISHING BOYS edited in March 2005 was nº1 at the Antena 3 radio station Top 20 for 4 weeks in a total of 17 weeks on the radio chart. POST HIT the self titled debut album, produced by Armando Teixeira (Balla) was edited in April 2005 with a sold out concert at the famous disco club LUX in Lisbon. The album received enthusiastic reviews, and it was 16 in the top 20 best international albums of 2005 by "Diário de Notícias" daily. GLAMORAMA the second single was edited in November 2005 and was also nº 1 at Antena 3 Top 20 for one week in a total of 10 weeks on the radio chart. GLAMORAMA remixes was also edited as a single in December 2005. GLAMORAMA was choosed by the american movie director Roger Avary (The rules of attraction, 2001) for his movie Glitterati (2005). A two year tour (2005/2007) in Portugal with more than 50 shows, tv programs and promotional events gave the chance to the band to meet others musicians and groups like Duran Duran, Scissor Sisters, The Human League, among others. .
Rui Pires the original keyboard player left the band in 2007, the band as a duo continue to do some gigs and start writings for a new album. In 2008 they were invited by Nuno Rosa (Pink Boy Dj at Lux Club) to record a song in Barcelona with the co-production of the band itself with Nuno Rosa that was a period when the band start to experiment the DJ set acts under the name POSH RITZ. In 2009 after a continuous period of writing the band decided to make a video-clip for the song recorded in Barcelona, "PARADOX" it will be edited as a single only in 2010 with some gigs and TV to promote it. During this period Paulo Neves, a producer and composer (who make some popular albuns in the 90's) and Post Hit decided to work together and restart from zero to write fresh songs for a new album. In result of this collaboration Post Hit returns again to a trio line up with a new member, Flávio Pacheco a sax player. A new album titled HITMUSIC! is on the way to be edited in 2012 with the advance of a new single . DESIRE(GIVE GIVE GIVE). Meanwhile Sebastião Teixeira left the band in December 2011. Again as a duo Paulo and Flávio are searching for a new line up to support the new album and tour for 2012/ 2013. The story continues
