The global Brazilian/American music of SambaDá has something for everyone within a sound Pop Matters hails as 'breathless party music.' As Pasadena Weekly notes, 'This Santa Cruz-based Afro-Brazilian collective [take] you to a Ventures date before veering south to Bahia for a funk-reggae-bloco-afro-hip-hop beachside dance party.' And that s not all the pleasures and wonders to be enjoyed in this release of their latest CD Gente! hailed as 'a fine collection of upbeat, dance-oriented works' (Nashville Scene) and 'some of the finest and liveliest Brazilian music made in the United States' (World Music Central) produced by noted world music master Greg Landau. This album captures the rich and infectious musical melting pot that has made SambaDá a live performance phenomenon. As Santa Cruz Good Times says, 'It s nearly impossible not to immediately fall head over heels for SambaDá.'
