PizzaExpress Live is excited to announce the show of this breezing Brazilian band. When you listen to the free flowing sound of smooth samba, heavenly shift shaping vocals and percussion packing a punch, you will be transported to the effervescent sea shores and streets of Brazil. This will be a sell-out so early booking is strongly advised! Nayla Yenquis Group is an eclectic quartet playing MPB which literally stands for Popular Music of Brazil. Arising at the same time as the innovative Tropicália sound, MPB is a rich, poetic style that incorporates the sounds of both the Samba and Bossa Nova, mixed with elements of contemporary jazz which has also contributed to the sound. The Nayla Yenquis Group’s repertoire is a diverse eclectic mix of their own unique compositions and exciting versions of Brazilian classics interspersed with their own original songs. Their music moves beautifully between bossa, samba and partido alto whilst combining foreign influences of jazz and soul, inspired by major composers of this style. The quartet will be presenting an enticing amalgam of contemporary Jazz and Brazilian song that together with the punctuating Brazilian percussion will leave you gasping for more. Let the music do the talking, so just book your seats to this Bossa / Samba/ Jazz / Soul extravaganza and experience it live at PizzaExpress!
