It’s a holiday weekend in Brazil!

Just like the iconic black and white tiles of Rio’s storied sidewalks, Bossa Nova’s legacy can be traced back to hundreds of individual songs and musicians who pushed Brazil’s musical revolution forward. We’ll explore that ‘old school’ sound this week!

Brazil’s Independence Day is celebrated on September 7th and Connect Brazil is the place to go for all the best stories, music, and insight. Ready to join in? We’re adding more events every day! Music, Travel, Friends & Fun! Click here on your computer, tablet, or smartphone.

Sunday’s ‘Brazilian Brunch’ celebrates Brazilian Independence Day with the softer side of Brazilian song on The Sounds of Brazil stream this weekend! We’ll sample some of the best and breeziest, along with a request or two! So make plans to join me this Sunday for three full hours beginning at 5 am, 9, 2, and 8 pm Central.
