Jason Machado has been performing Música Popular Brasileira or MPB, as the genre is widely known, for over 20 years on the eastern coasts of both Australia & Brazil. With voice and 7-string guitar he performs a selection of the wonderful songs from Brazil – a country famous for its extraordinary music and its sensuous, melodious language. Jason will have four percusionists performing with him on this night.
“...chilled and sophisticated providing an opportunity for couples to slow dance... perhaps a Brazilian-style answer to the Buena Vista Social Club” Rachel Longford – The Courier Mail.
MPB is one of the greatest examples of cultural fusion as expressed through music and song, a broad style drawing from a huge array of global sounds, such as European Salon music, African Lundu, jazz, samba (lots of samba!), rock and reggae. Music that is positive, uplifting and joyful – utilizing melody, harmony and rhythm in a unique way. Let the JASON MACHADO GROUP take you on a musical journey through the exotic world of MPB - Música Popular Brasileira.
