April (Live at Offbeat)

Brazilian/Afro music from France and Malta!

For the uninitiated, the music of the Franco-Maltese nonet is an uplifting, happy fusion of Brazilian grooves with modern jazz arrangements, high energy and spontaneous but sometimes sombre and melancholic. Expect the debut album to come out mid-2019 and, in the meantime, have a listen to the EP!
