O’s Notes: Guitarist Sergio Pereira is a Brazilian powerhouse following up his well-regarded debut,“Swingando“(4/3). He returns with a strong band including Helio Alves (p), Devin Malloy (rap), Perico Sambeat (sax), Gabriel Grossi (harmonica) and many others. They pour heavy doses of passion tempered with warm, flowing bossa nova beats to arrive at that refreshing Brazilian groove. Highlights include “Arpoador” featuring free flowing scatting by Paula Santoro, “Down South”, “Lascia Stare” with Grossi in the spotlight, and “Nu Brazil” featuring vocalist Victoria Pilatovic and Volo Garcia on trumpet.
