They are on my list every year, but I didn't get there until last night. I see why they get this end of year spot again and again. This is a fantastic Brazilian/jazz fusion trio!
Each of them had me focusing in on them at various times. They have a great rapport with each other. It's one of those ensembles where everything is aligned just right. I bet they've been playing together for a long time. I got the impression from their comments that they don't get the opportunity that often.
I loved all of it. They ran the gamut, beautiful Latin ballads, "I want to get up and dance Latin grooves, and whatever goes in between.
I had a great time and will think twice about missing future opportunities.
Romero Lubambo – guitar
Nilson Matta – bass
Duduka da Fonseca – drums and percussion
