www.playingforchange.com – While on our journey of recording and filming musicians in Brazil, someone told us that all we needed to do was “shake a tree, and musicians would fall out like fruit.” That couldn’t have been more true. It was one of our last days in Salvador da Bahia when we discovered this band, Sangue Brasileiro. Wow! They are super fun and I guarantee you will want to dance to this jam and smile at the screen. This song, “Samba de Viola” is a true reflection of the Samba music that is the pulse of Brazil. This performance truly embodies the Playing For Change spirit, and the band’s musicianship is incredible! Enjoy!

Thanks!!! I guess there is not a lot more to say, I wish I could’ve been there!!
“There’s been a time that I felt lost and left and alone, but somehow i know that i’m still able to carry on” – pretty much sums it up. God bless!!!

Takes the breath away from one’s soul, and lets the wings stretch out and fly. Truly a song for the heavens.

C’est un pur enchantement pour les oreilles.
Deux voix superbement accordées et remplies d’émotions.
Bravo pour l’ensemble de ce moment magique.
Il n’y a rien de plus beau que de se donner dans la musique. Merci!

Finally on tour and can’t wait for them to arrive on Oct. 13th in Calgary. So lucky to see the tour announcement when I did, got 2 tickets and with only about 600 being sold for the venue I consider myself very lucky. What a night it will be in YYC!

I think they should record someone playing the traditional viola caipira (this is a “viola samba” but there’s no one playing it here… hehehe) ! But this video is amazing!

That’s right. They are very good dancers too. In Salvador da Bahia they has Olodum, one of the best drum band.
