Janean Wjvold Presents: Best of the Blues & Forro ft. EN CANTO with JECONTE BAYOU MALI BLUES + RAFAEL TRANQUILINO BAND. + LEAH TUSSING 21+

En Canto is a high-energy, women-led Brazilian orchestra located in Seattle. En Canto Brazilian Orchestra features a seven-piece ensemble that includes vocals, accordion, flute, clarinet, percussion, bass and keyboard. They are known in the Seattle area for danceable rhythms and exotic melodies, which draws everyone onto the dance floor.

JeConte's' new release 'Down by the Bayou' as recorded with Anders Osbourne dips deep into the roots of the Bayou while simultaneously preserving the NorCal Rock n' Roll and West African influences of JeConte's style. He brings lightening harmonica chops and a deep, bluesy vocal style to the band. His performance is a one-of-a kind, high vibrational musical experience-embodying what live, funky, blues-rock is all about. JeConte and the Mali Allstars' CD was recorded during the coup d'etait .'The Mali Blues,' and made the top ten list in World Music and Putamayo listed the record as #4 in 2013.

Rafael Tranquilino Band is a True Live Experience Band! An instrumental power house of guitar, bass, and drums with vocals that fuse rock, blues and funk in an alternative invocation of crossroads; past, present, and future.Tranquilino is known for his searing riffs and old fashioned Delta slide. His music is hypnotic; it has wings, lifting listeners to where the tension is on purpose to linger in the resistance before set free in sweet relief. RTB is a rocket ship ride going full speed through layers of atmosphere into outer space, but they deliver, and listeners will transcend from the ride.
