VAPOR by BIXIGA 70

Sao Paulo's Afro-Brazilian groove visionaries Bixiga 70 return with an ecstatic 5th album - Vapor - their first in four years. The sound is joyful, a series of potent horn driven melodies and infectious polyrhythms. More Mthan a return, Vapor is a rebirth. An exuberant, full-tilt party. An entire age had passed since their last album in 2018; the whole world had changed. The Covid pandemic had hit Brazil especially hard, leaving the entire country shuttered for far too long. On top of that, after more than a decade together, some old members of the ten-piece instrumental band had left and new ones arrived. It was time to take a deep breath and see if they could still make magic. They could. A continuation, but much more than that, Vapor is a regeneration for Bixiga 70. The addictive sound of Sao Paulo
