MAIS UM!
New sounds of Brazil / Novos sons do Brasil
Thursday 25 July 2013 / 20:00, Village Underground
Tickets: £15
Cutting-edge producers and promoters of 21st century Brazilian sounds, Mais Um Discos, in association with the Barbican present three exciting new artists from Brazil at Village Underground in London’s East end in July. The line-up for this summer night of ‘New sounds of Brazil’ features turbo-charged tropical tecnobrega dance music from the queen of the Amazonian dancehall Gaby Amarantos in her debut European show; adventurous, modernist Brazilian singer-songwriter Lucas Santtana who mixes Brazilian rhythms with dub, afrobeat, hip-hop and beyond, and 6-piece band Graveola, who bring their quirky mix of styles borrowing from the folk, rock, funk and blues songbook but with more than a nod to the fuzzy and freaky Tropicalia movement of 70s Brazil. Plus DJ Mais Um Gringo.
Produced by Mais Um in association with the Barbican. Supported by the Embassy of Brazil, London.

NEW: Support artists confirmed as John Smith (28 May) and Denai Moore (31 May)
Tuesday 28 May & Friday 31 May 2013/ 19.30, Barbican Hall
Tickets: £15–22.50
The Barbican presents the only London shows from Iron & Wine in 2013, showcasing a brand new album (4AD/Nonesuch).
Over the course of his ten-year career, Iron & Wine’s Sam Beam has become one of today’s greatest storytellers, crafting mercurial tales full of forlorn love, religious imagery and wistful dreams. Following 2011’s Kiss Each Other Clean, which debuted at number two on the US Billboard chart, Beam presents his fifth studio album, Ghost on Ghost – released on 4AD in April 2013. Support comes from an exciting voice on the new British folk scene, Devon guitar man John Smith (28 May) and Stratford, London singer-songwriter Denai Moore (31 May).
