Lil Groooove II

This is an idea I was working on a few months that I composed & recorded starting with a layered #BossaNova beat, an upright bass part, a unison then harmonic background vocalese pad arrangement, grand piano, percussion, and a rhythm guitar part (all played on keys), but what I really needed was a REAL #Brasilian guitarist! When I met the amazing Ricardo Barros in #SaoPaulo, #Brazil at a private jam session, I knew we had to connect and there was definitely musical magic! He recorded some takes for my track and voila! An instant classic–at least for my repertoire! 😉


Released February 23, 2023 on ahmedsirour.com and March 1, 2023 on Bandcamp. More platforms to come.


And the film footage excerpts seen throughout this video is taken from the 1959 classic #MarcelCamus film, "Orfeu Negro" (or "Black Orpheus" as it's known in the U.S.). The featured stars shown are the beautiful #MarpessaDawn and the handsome #BrenoMello. #BlackLove
