Cut to the beginning of 2014. While the rest of Brazil was celebrating Carnival and the rest of Nashville was getting ready for Mardis Gras and SXSW, the Brothers Of Brazil quietly flew into Music City to record their next album "Brasilero Rockn' Rolla." Finding a Producer that could work with their unique blend of genres it was not an easy task but ultimately found their match with Jon Tiven (Frank Black, Wilson Pickett, Robert Plant) and his partner Jim Wallerstein. The Producers enthusiasm lead to hours of shared Skype rehearsal sessions in which the two producers would offer their two cents. Sections were cut, beats were changed, titles altered, and the result was that when the group finally arrived in Nashville the framework for what would obviously be a definitive work was all there. Joao states - "We would find good ideas and solutions for songs very naturally with the chemistry we had going on with them. I enjoyed playing the sitar, the 12 string bass, the bare tone guitar the organ.... Jon had all those instruments in his studio and we had never had that opportunity before to experiment." The result is the best album they have made and in the words of Tiven, proof that The Brothers are the "missing link between Tom Jobim ("Girl from Ipanema") and David Bowie!" You can hear the musical growth throughout the album: from the traditional Brazilian stylings of "Bons Momentos" to the rollicking comedic feel of "Go-Go Girl", and all the way to the 60's Pop sound of "Brasileiro RocknRolla" you can always count on Brothers of Brazil to take you on a musical rollercoaster. "Come On Over" is a clear anthem calling everyone to Brazil for the World Cup. You can hear and feel that the songs are more fully realized while still staying true to the natural aesthetic of the band and their uniqueness. Supla states; "I've never been prouder of the end result of the work I've done." Expect the band to be touring the planet this year in support of the album. Having just performed at Lollapalooza Brazil, the band has also been enjoying success on National Brazilian Alternative Radio and #1 videos on MTV Brazil. Yet the end it all still comes down to the music. "It is great to be different and have your own style but in the end you have to have a great song." - Supla
