Sky Brothers


I have known the bass player, Jorge Varella, since the days he used to play with Flavio Espirito Santo. For the past couple of years he teamed up with Macgregor, a singer, composer and lead guitar player extraordinaire. They locked themselves in a tropical studio ignoring the bright day light and the noise forest around them. The brothers wrote tunes, knocked a few tracks down and a several months later “Sky Brothers”, the band, was born. Their sound is a mix of Celtic Rock and contemporary Heavy Metal.  Macgregor’s voice is powerful and guttural, Varella’s bass is solid and fluid and there is more, Kote on guitar and Iure Sant'anna on drums…yeah, great sounds for you to listen to.

Now year 2014, Sky Brothers continue their cosmic trip into a well-crafted album, discussing life on earth and beyond.  The screaming guitar riffs and sizzling heavy drums are the signature of a band that refuses to conform or fall into normality. The brothers have lifted off, inviting you to get on board and check them out http://youtu.be/x3f3gCaghrY

Sexy You featuring Ester Azeredo


There is a track out called Sexy You. It is another release from Groove n’ Bossa, their  first 2014 release featuring a chanteuse called Ester Azeredo.  It is a smooth easy listening  track delivering  nice lyrics and bluesy guitar solo played by Marcos Vianna. The final track production, mix and video was left to Aldeoni and he’s done a decent job too. If you haven’t yet heard other Groove n’ Bossa releases, you should check them out immediately. Quantitum Records is releasing the Sexy You single, it will be available to the public  at the end of January and the video is online already http://youtu.be/CT7xT63z-Ww
