Leeds' top Brazilian music promoter Lubi Jovanovic (DJ Lubi) brings some world class UK musicians to the Brudenell to play some beautiful Brazilian jazz and samba fusion with some special international guests.
Baiana is the Brazilian-inspired project of Liverpool-born singer-songwriter Laura Doyle. Refreshingly joyful and charismatic, the show will feature internationally acclaimed percussionist Snowboy, (Lisa Stansfield, Imelda May, Amy Winehouse, Rod Temperton, Airto Morreira), who produced their stunning 2023 debut album, along with the brass section from legendary The Haggis Horns (John Legend, Mark Ronson, Corinne Bailey Rae, Amy Winehouse).
Dubbed “the band we are all obsessed about” (Deb Grant, BBC 6 Music), Baiana’s thrilling live shows have been described as “Outstanding” (Robbie Vincent Jazz FM), and having “a proper wow factor” (John Osbourne Solar Radio).

A hugely popular draw at Love Supreme and Ealing Jazz Festival, Baiana also headlined the Southend Jazz Festival, as well as supporting Brazilian mega-star Gilberto Gil on his UK tour.
It promises a heady mix of infectious Brazilian rhythms, superb musicianship, inspirational soloing and beautiful songs. Not to be missed!
Support comes from one of the north's finest Brazilian musicians, saxophonist Gustavo Andrade. Originally from São Paulo Brazil and now based in Leeds, since his arrival in Leeds, he has lit up the Brazilian music scene in the city and across the north. His main band The Brasukas are a 12 piece samba/MPB band who have sold out shows in Manchester (Blues Kitchen/Band On The Wall), Nottingham (Peggy's Skylight), and Leeds (Brudenell Social Club/Hyde Park Book Club/Headrow House). Tonight, he warms up for Baiana with his smaller sextet playing Brazilian jazz, samba fusion and bossa nova.
