Fridays After Five: Beleza

FRIDAYS AFTER FIVE | BUD LIGHT CONCERT SERIES

Beleza - Funkalicious Samba Soul

United by musical interests that include samba, funk, soul, blues, bossa nova, jazz and Spanish flamenco; Humberto Oliveira Sales and Madeline Holly-Sales blend the melodic, rhythmic and harmonic riches from North and South America.  Berto, native to Brazil, pursued a formal education in classical guitar. His knowledge of Brazilian rhythms and study of Spanish Flamenco add to the unique finger picking style he uses.  Madeline brings with her the strong influence of soul, jazz and blues.  She sings in Portuguese, English and Spanish.  Her sensual, rich voice, playful interpretations, and strong stage presence make their combination extremely unique. They will be joined by Jonah Kane-West on organ and Matt Wyatt on drums to make the evening a rhythmically contagious celebration.
