A Divine surprise that we would love to meet again soon. The Portuguese formation makes a musical cauldron mix, at the same time with Brazilian rhythms, the cosmic jazz spirituality and the typical youngsters unconsciousness... - http://www.progressia.net/?rub=articles&articleid=588&part=page1

Bio
As the name suggests, there is a relation to the ocean’s motion and its inhabitants…Space is the place and that is where music plays its unifying role. The waves of the ocean connect the continents, as well as the sounds coming from these lands and that’s where Yemanjazz distils these influences in to its own painting and poetry. Yemanjazz profits from vernaculars of a variety of disciplines, some of them outside music like dance, poetry & performance.
Coltrane, Gismonti, Hermeto Pascoal, Pantera...
