Música Brasileira - Katie G. & The Half Maccs Super Band

The Sapphire Room and Idaho Jazz Education Endowment are pleased to present “Música Brasileira”, an evening of Brazilian Samba with Katie G. & The Half Maccs Super Band.

Samba is a rich musical genre with origins in the Brazilian states of Rio de Janeiro, Bahia and Salvador, and is featured annually in the exuberant celebration of Carnaval. A unique blend of syncopated percussive rhythms and complex melodies, samba taps into the joy and nostalgia within each of us, connects with our inner spirit, and compels us to move along with the beat.

This project is spearheaded by the dynamic musical team of Camden Hughes and Katie Garonzik, both Idaho natives. Camden brings his musical acumen to the table with creative arrangements and background as a multi-instrumentalist and composer. Katie’s vocals lend themselves well to the Brazilian jazz style. Her rich alto voice hauntingly reflects a vulnerable and spine-tingling sensitivity.

Joining the program is keyboardist Nick Monteiro, percussionists David Gluck and Grant Green, guitarist Kevin LittrelL, Dean Jennings on woodwinds, and vocalist Carol Raye.

This unique performance will feature repertoire from musical greats such as Antonio Carlos Jobim, Sergio Mendes, Rosa Passos, Toninho Horta, and more.

Grab your feathers, shakers, and sparkles, and get your tickets while you can.
