Have you ever experienced the transcendental sensation of being in more than one place at the same time? Are you in Trinidad or Tokyo? Manhattan or Milan? Brazil or the Bahamas? That is precisely the type of vibrant feeling that animates the twelve tracks of the Brazilian Girls' self-titled debut on Verve Forecast.

Coming from different corners of the globe (Sabina was born in Rome, raised in Munich and Nice, and sings in five different languages; Didi from Buenos Aires, Argentina; Jesse and Aaron from California and Kansas, respectively), each member of Brazilian Girls has an impressive past of prior works. One snagged a Latin Grammy® Award; another has scored several important independent films. They have all performed and collaborated with prominent artists.

Visually, Sabina pushes the ensemble to a new level. "There’s an element of suspense about how she presents herself," observes Jesse. Like Grace Jones and Björk, she's committed to making a bold visual statement. Sabina: "For me, life is …." "We like the surrealist approach," interrupts Jesse. Enough said.

Tortured Soul

It's a new concept in the world of house music: no DJ's, no loops, no sequencers...Tortured Soul performs completely live. The instrumentation is simple and organic - drums, electric bass, vintage keys, and vocals. On stage and in the studio, Tortured Soul blends modern pop and dance music sensibilities with American R&B to create a sound evocative of Jamiroquai, Stevie Wonder, St. Germain, The New Deal, and Fela Kuti.

They've played hundreds of shows in dance clubs, live venues and festivals all over the US, Canada, and England. Their genre-bending sound has led them to share the stage with superstar DJ's and live acts alike, from Paul Oakenfold, Roni Size, Francois K, Miguel Migs and Felix Da Housecat, to John Mayer, Maroon 5, Medeski Martin & Wood, The Legendary Wailers, and The Brand New Heavies. In addition to their accomplished live musicianship, Tortured Soul's studio productions have been played and praised by such luminary DJ/Producers as Kaskade, Marques Wyatt and Roger Sanchez. Their tracks have been selected for nearly 20 house music compilations in the past three years. Their most recent single, "Enjoy It Now" on Lifeline Records, is sold out in stores and is in heavy rotation in the clubs.
