The Brazilian band formed by the Martins brothers plays mostly their own compositions, but also traditional brazilian numbers and eventually rock classics (even Led Zeppelin!) rearranged according to Brasilian sonic universe. Fal (Fabio)Martins - a classically trained / awarded guitarist and a bossa/brazilian music performer– wrote and produced the songs , besides playing pianos guitars and singing. Nadia Martins (Vocals & co-lyricist ) is also a writer and has just finished her “ A Ray of Umbria” , a romance with a brazilian look at Umbrian (Italy ) people and culture to be released soon in Italy , where she lives.
