The everlasting late summer

Vinícius Cantuária is a master of cool sensuality. The guitarist, singer and drummer from Brazil, now living in New York, combines samba, bossa nova, jazz and rock in his songs. Fans love how he elegantly blends grace and power in his performance. His range already made him an extremely popular session musician before his solo career began in the early 1980s because he is effective. According to The Guardian, Cantuária is »more musical than Caetano Veloso, more enduring than Gilberto Gil and equipped with more talent than Max de Castro, Otto and Patricia Marx put together.«

For »Psychedelic Rio«, Cantuária got Italian bassist Paolo Andriolo and drummer Roberto Rossi on board to celebrate the everlasting late summer. Cantuária’s laconic vocals encounter rhythms at times swirling, at others shimmering. »Psychedelic Rio« is equally adventurous and relaxed. Cantuária also repeatedly manages to extract different aspects from old familiar sounds. Music that enchants, challenges, seduces and surprises.
