The Jazz Foundation of America presents a Happy Hour Set with BrasiNola ...

BrasiNola is a New Orleans-based musical group that blends 1970s and 1980s Brazilian tropicália, samba, and funk with deep New Orleans second-line rhythms for a mix of samba, folk, psychedelia, and jazz-funk. Co-founded by bassist Ron Johnson, the band features local players performing classic Brazilian tracks with a heavy NOLA groove.

The band draws on the late 1960s and 1970s heyday of that Brazilian sound while grounding everything in the feel of the city where they perform. As bassist and co-founder Ron Johnson puts  it, "the NOLA in our name is the foot of the New Orleans drummer."
