About the Album
The starry cast of Brazilian vocalist and composer Luiz Millan's 'Brazilian Match' shines throughout. Six-time GRAMMY® winner David Sanborn, one of the most iconic and influential alto saxophonists of his generation, showcases his expressiveness on “In The Grove of The Jacarandas.” He plays a poetic solo and also “sings” the bridge in unison with Mark Egan‘s unique fretless bass, adorning Ellen Johnson’s vocals in a lilting bossa-jazz mood. “It’s been a joy to sing to this track and has lifted my spirits, so I can imagine what it will do for people when they hear it as well,” says the LA-based singer.
