Sultry Brazilian Grooves With a Jazzy Twist

Using a fullrange palette of sounds – acoustic guitar, lots of percussion, strings and hornsection alongside warm keyboards and other electric elements – they create a deep groove with a blend of samba, afrobeat and jazz. The vibrant 7-piece band A Bossa Eletrica plays a heady interpretation of Brazilian music.With a funky rhythm section and singer Miriam Aida and multi-reed-man Fredrik Kronkvist upfront the music is jazzy and sometimes complex, but always with a steady groove for the feet! For this album lyrics in portuguese is written by brazilian poets Etel Frota, Guilem Rodrigues da Silva and Swedish percussionist Sebastian Notini.
