Brazilian/American trio São Paulo Underground celebrates 10 years of dauntless sonic exploration with a rare US tour in September 2015  [L-R: Guilherme Granado, Rob Mazurek, Mauricio Takara | Art Work: Damon Locks | Photo: Jason Marck] Described by The New York Times as “a visionary jazz-rock trio” and Rolling Stone as “limitless in its possibilities,” São Paulo Underground celebrates ten years of creating cutting edge modern music with rare US performances in September 2015. Founded in 2005, during Chicago composer and cornetist Rob Mazurek’s eight-year Brazilian sojourn, São Paulo Underground is a power trio that links Chicago’s volatile creative music scene with São Paulo, Brazil’s leading experimental musicians. São Paulo Underground features Chicago composer Rob Mazurek on cornet and electronics and two Brazilian musicians: Mauricio Takara on percussion, cavaquinho and electronics, and Guilherme Granado on keyboards, synths, sampler and vocals. The ensemble’s music embodies a fascinating mixture of Sun Ra-esque cosmic noise with rhythms and phrasing from samba, maracatu, rock and free jazz traditions. The result is electronica-laced Tropicália characterized by glistening sonic textures, unabashedly beautiful melodies, an expansive improvisational palette and fiercely gleeful interplay. The trio will perform new compositions and material from its widely acclaimed Cuneiform releases, Beija Flors Velho E Sujo (2013) and Tres Cabeças Loucuras (2011). Listen to a sample of Beija Flors Velho E Sujo: https://soundcloud.com/cuneiformrecords/sao-paulo-underground-the-love-i-feel 
“A modern approach to Brazil's Tropicália, that takes into account advances in sound manipulation and engineering. It is street music from the Brazilian subterranean avant-garde.”
- All About Jazz “This high-energy romp takes the sting out of the term fusion in the best possible way.” - DownBeat "Tropicalia never sounded this modern and alive." - Sound Colour Vibration ___________ Learn more about São Paulo Underground, download high resolution photos, and hear more sound samples at: São Paulo Underground's Artist Page on Cuneiform's Website  [L-R: Guilherme Granado, Rob Mazurek, Mauricio Takara | Photo: Jason Marck] SÃO PAULO UNDERGROUND SEPTEMBER 2015 US TOUR DATES
