We are a Latin Jazz Duo mainly; We play with a Digital Sequencer. we make our own arrangements, over which we sing and play different guitars and Bass. we are not Country or HipHop or Heavy Metal or Reggae or Rock, and we are not prejudiced either. Our style is mostly Brazilian and Caribbean party tunes but we also play American Soft Rock and American Easy Jazz.
