   About Empty Boat
The band Empty Boat formed in 2004 when an unusual crew of professional musicians were brought together on a trip to Mozambique as part of an awareness raising campaign by Poo Productions (www.pooproductions.org), which focused on the issues of sanitation and water in the developing world.

The band members are as eclectic as the sounds they have produced. "They come from all different disciplines and have a taste for exotic and unlikely combinations" says Dean Brodrick the founder and composer of the group. Many of the artists, such as Brazilian singer Mônica Vasconcelos and tuba and bass guitar player Gideon Juckes are established stars in their own right. Others, such as Dean's seven-year old daughter Madalaine, are just embarking on their musical journey. The unique sound of Empty Boat combines African rhythms and multiple vocals with Latin percussion, jazz and Brazilian harmonies.
