The best gig we did was the opening act for Isaac et Nora's band on their world tour when stopping in Sydney, at the Factory Theatre.
We love all types of events, sometimes concerts can be a bit more serious and corporate and private events a bit more relaxed, but we are happy to always connect to beautiful and interesting people!
We are brothers and have been playing music together for over 25 years. In our latest adventure we are exploring the Brazilian classical guitar, that has a lot to offer and plays a pivotal role in the culture of our country, so for us it is a real pleasure to step into our homeland's musical heritage and share it across Australia. We started gigging back home in the 2000's and more recently, in Australia, we have been sharing our work with the beautiful instrumental music from our country.
We are influenced by many great musicians, some of them are Dilermando Reis, João Pernambuco, Turibio Santos, Baden Powell, Yamandu Costa, Toquinho, etc.
We usually arrive one hour before the performance to do the setup and sound check, and play 1 to 3 sets of 45 minutes. We are flexible and can adjust the set times and length to the schedule of the event.
Yes, we are happy to play outside and can provide battery operated power if needed.
We often play the extensive repertoire we already have, but sometimes have requests and are happy to work on new material. :)
The music we play is sophisticated, exquisite and unique, we always receive a very nice & warm feedback after our presentations and often some guests get impressed by the virtuosity and beauty of the music and arrangements we created.
"Thank you so much for playing at our event. We really appreciate it! You were both fantastic and we will definitely have you in if we do another event in the future."
