Rodrigo Amarante<\/strong>\u00a0born 1976 *rolls eyes* (now I get it… private joke<\/em>), in Rio de Janeiro,\u00a0Brazil\u00a0is a\u00a0guitarist, occasional\u00a0bassist, singer\u00a0and\u00a0songwriter\u00a0for the bands\u00a0Los Hermanos<\/strong><\/a>,\u00a0Orquestra Imperial\u00a0and\u00a0Little Joy. I first came across his work with Los Hermanos (the band) when my old and dearest Brazilian flatmate Kalil – big up bro – sent over some of his previous tunes where they happen to sing in French and had playlisted this particular track in Sundaze #31<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0back in\u00a0November last year (2012).<\/p>\n

Well turns out the man himself is currently preparing a solo album for sometime this year’s end or beginning of the next. And we showcase here two of his songs (the only two he has available in fact). Beautiful tracks. We especially love “Tardei” to which we easily fell to sleep yesterday while playing it on repeat with the headphones. Goes without saying, I nearly strangled myself with the cord the following morning.<\/p>\n

We can’t stress enough on how good these two tracks sound like ! Anything spoken\/sung or even shouted in portuguese sounds like awesome music to me, the accent is to DIE for :<\/p>\n

If you’ve been reading our blogging efforts for some time you’ll notice the recurring Brazilian bands, artists and tracks we feature. Yes, we have a soft-corner for all things Brazilian. Sorry. Hope you don’t mind as we will surely continue posting more in the VERY near future. Please head over and follow his social profiles (provided below the picture gallery) and trust us, Rodrigo Amarante<\/strong> (besides being \u00fcber-famous on his home turf) is going to get plenty of attention, pretty soon here in Europe… Amarante has that great appeal for European markets you know. We’ve added the lyrics to “Tardei” and “Man\u00e1” below so our non-portuguese readers can some what follow and singalong with the rest of the cool kids.<\/p>\n
