The association known as Grêmio Recreativo Cultural Escola de Samba Independente Tricolor, or simply Independente Tricolor, has its origins in Torcida Tricolor Independente and Bloco Carnavalesco Independente, located at Rua Doze de Setembro, nº 259, Vila Guilherme, São Paulo. Initially as a block, Independente Tricolor began to participate in carnival parades as a Samba School after the end of its performances as a block. In the 2000s, Torcida Independente began planning its participation in the São Paulo Carnival, creating the Bloco Independente with its own statute. In 2003, after an incident involving members of Pavilhão 9 and Mancha Verde, the block was excluded from carnival by UESP. Years later, it became a samba school, debuting in 2010 as Grêmio Recreativo Cultural e Escola de Samba Malungos Independente.
