GNR is a Portuguese pop rock band formed in Porto in 1980 and currently consists of vocalist Rui Reininho, bassist Jorge Romão and the only remaining founding member drummer Tóli César Machado. The formation of the group, that shares its acronym with the Guarda Nacional Republicana, coincided with the so-called Boom of Portuguese Rock that took place during the eighties, of which GNR are one of the few survivors to this day.
