BRAZILIAN JAZZ coming to ThinkPunk as part of BlueBellBeats Twilight Series
The good news keep coming, we have yet another exciting announcement for our BlueBellBeats Live Series! We’re delighted to let you know that on the 1st of October our stage will be full of beautiful vibes with Kasia Eliasz and her 9 piece band! Get ready for the groove!
Kasia Eliasz and 9-piece band
Kasia Eliasz Brazilian Jazz Quintet, Ta Tum Tum!, jazz harpist and a sax/flute player. And everything in one place at once! Extremely energetic, fun and musically rich group will be taking you for a journey to Brazil through samba, bossa nova and jazz! Her Brazilian Quintet will be joined by Ta Tum Tum! - a trio she created in 2022 which has been sold out during Cruinniu na nOg in Riverbank Arts Centre. With the Quintet she will be playing at 20th Bydgoszcz Jazz Festival ’22 in Poland.
Brazilian rhythms have its roots in Africa and are one of the most recognisable rhythms in the world. Samba is enacted most spectacularly in the Brazilian Carnaval celebrations, which have captured the global imagination in its pulsating rhythms, its decadent revelry, its extroverted performativity and its extravagant exhibitionism.
And this is what this 9-piece band is about! Sharing the most colourful and happy celebration in the world!
Kasia is a recipient of Music Bursary 2022 from Riverbank Arts Centre. Her artistic work has been also funded by the Arts Council, Kildare County Council, Creative Ireland and Department of Tourism, Arts, Culture, Gaeltacht, Sports & Media.
