An explicit anthem to identify the living essence of this work. Jambassa confirms direction, identity and sound, pushing the boundaries with 7 new tracks, adding a very special spice for each one.
For the love of life, please play some shows in the states, or at least in Canada. Everything about your music brings a sense of completion to my consciousness, and I would love to experience that at a live performance.
im 13 and im probably the only person at my school that knows about you guys, but you guys make music that causes a love for music that i cant describe. everybody likes all that stuff thats on the radio but you guys are so much better. I praise you guys for being you. plus i learned some of the trumpet melodies in "postcards from italy" "elephant gun" and "rhineland". your trumpeteer is very talented.
A música Lei de Murphy venceu o Festival de Santa Maria. Ela foi interpretada pela Carol Voigt, gostaria que visitasse myspace.com/srtavoigt e desse "aquela força" para ela. Ouça ainda a "Matin Ensoleillé" com accordeon, and please, listen too myspace.com/peninhavieira the new happy sound of Brazil!
