More about Frederico7 y Los Primes
Frederico7 y Los Primes fuses Afro-Brazilian rhythms with American Funk, Soul, Dub and a dash of Psychedelia. Their debut album “Exótico Americano” brings together a soulful musical journey through the Americas. Afro-Brazilian rhythms act as the album’s beating heart and give life to the psychedelic, funk, cumbia, reggae and soul sounds infused throughout the record. The music shares band leader Frederico Gieb’s observations of living through North and South America – as well as time in Argentina – and tells of a personal yet universal story. The richness of the multicultural experiences both in Austin and around the world have informed the life and art of Frederico7 y Los Primes and make it easy for them to transition from a samba song in the album to a cumbia. Their music is guaranteed to move and inspire you!
The concert will include live-composed improvisations of music and dance, conducted by Andrea Ariel. Some of these live creations will be drawn from these songs and others, deconstructing and remixing them in the moment. Imagine exhilarating overtures to songs created in the moment that drop into the full song performances. Live composing adds mystery, increases anticipation and elevates excitement in performances in many different contexts.
