REINALDO BRAHN

BRASILEIRO SOUL


RR-124 HDCD



Talented young Brazilian singer, songwriter, and guitarist Reinaldo Brahn plays rich and complex music with a killer band and exotic percussion by famed Jim Brock!

  • Brasileiro Soul is a collection of 14 original songs penned by Brazilian guitarist and singer Reinaldo Brahn.


  • The deep heritage of his guitar style, along with his rich unmistakable voice, make the music as provocative as the land that cultivated it.


  • Veteran percussionist and producer Jim Brock refers to Reinaldo Brahn as “the new voice of brazil.”


  • Lyrics in Portugese (with one song in English).


  • This young guitarist grew up listening to the jazzy samba music of his native brazil.   On Brasilero Soul he weaves that heritage with new brazilian pop styles.


  • Reinaldo left the renowned Brazilian vocal group Soul Makube to embark on a solo career.   Gathering influences from Gilberto Gil, Djavan, and Caetano Veloso, he began touring his original music throughout Brazil, then brought his music to the US in 2006.


  • This music has widespread audience appeal, and the sonics from Grammy® award-winning engineer Keith Johnson will ensure an enthusiastic reception by audiophiles and music lovers.


  • Recorded at the venerable Reflection Sound Studios in Charlotte, NC, the scene of several past Reference Recordings successes.
