Description

The João Menezes Band bring heartwarming Bossa Nova and energy-filled samba rhythms to dance the night away, with support from Joose Keskitalo, one of the most original contemporary singer-songwriters in Finland.

João Menezes is a Portuguese guitarist and singer that specialises in Brazilian music. He explores different styles, including but not limited to, Bossa Nova, Samba, Samba-Rock and Baião, with arrangements from Jorge Ben, Seu Jorge, João Bosco, Djavan, Tom Jobim and many others. He will be joined tonight by Harry Pearce on bass, Giuliano Pereira on sax and Jansen Santana on drums.

In support, Finnish-born Joose Keskitalo is regarded as one of the most original contemporary singer-songwriters in Finland. A prolific songwriter who has published music in Finnish since 2004, being involved in projects like the psychedelic folk collective Paavoharju. Joose experiments with forms and stories found in Francis Child's collection of ballads and Shakespeare's history plays, notions of Alchemy and other old traditions with a strange Outsider Folk feel to it. Be prepared to hear stories about selling your soul to the devil, King Henry IV, the peasant's revolt and old Greek mythology. The music ranges from traditional folk to Jethro Tull-ish blues rock.

The band tonight are:
Joose Keskitalo (guitar, vocals, flute and violin)
Ville Linna (banjo, weissenborn, dulcimer and backing vocals)
.
Jamboree food option: Our ?Arepatoire? kitchen is open from 6pm serving a delicious mix of Italian/Colombian food for you to enjoy a pre-gig meal/snack if you wish!
