Mes Amis Band

Introduction: Mes Amis is a musical ensemble made up of artists from Brazil, Honduras, Norway, and the US. Their repertoire consists of contemporary World Music, classic Brazilian compositions, pop, and jazz standards. In a single set, listeners will likely enjoy the sounds of Brazil (i.e. "Girl from Ipanema"), modern arrangements of timeless standards from the great American songbook (i.e. "Fly Me to the Moon") as well as contemporary favorites by artists such as Eric Clapton, Bill Withers, and Djavan. Mes Amis has the sophisticated sensibility of artists like Sting and Peter Gabriel driven by the soothing syncopation of dueling South American guitar stylings and world rhythms. Imagine classical guitars supported by a bed of hand percussion/drums. Vocals in Portuguese, French, and English.
