Named after a fishing boat found in Bahia in the north-east of Brazil, the home of Afro-Brazilian rhythms, the piano trio Djangada take this classic sound as a starting point and bring it into the 21st century. Adding a funkier take on the traditional Brazilian rhythms, they are inspired by the jazz trio aesthetic but at the same time retain the energetic party atmosphere of the original style. The end result is a mix of Afro-Brazilian grooves, funky basslines and a strong improvisational flair, making the band’s shows exciting and entertaining. The three members, Sam Watts-piano, Matheus Nova-bass & Marcinho Pereira-drums are all established musicians in their own right, with performances at the likes of the Royal Albert Hall, Wigmore Hall, Ronnie Scott’s and the Montreal, London, Paris, Montreux and North Sea Jazz Festivals. “the performance by the trio adds up to a well-contrasted and stimulating totality…Watts’ superb pianism and intelligent musicianship…Nova’s sanguine dexterity with unbridled virtuosity and the electrifying drumming of Pereira” World Music Report
Djangada
Fast emerging as the new Brazilian sound from the UK, Djangada's funky piano trio reworkings of classics from Gilberto Gil and Dorival Caymmi has captivated audiences all over. Their dynamic trio interplay comes from years of performing together as a rhythm section and is a thrill to witness live; a blend of traditional Brazilian music with a jazz aesthetic that is lively and accessible, but with a deep sense of craft and musicality.
