A jazz concert featuring the legendary Brazilian musician Marcos Valle with the project Jazz Is Dead and support from Nossas Novas.
Marcos Valle is playing Mohawk on Monday, July 20, as part of the Jazz Is Dead series. The show is presented by Resound and ArtDontSleep, and it's an outdoor date at the venue's 912 Red River Street spot.
If the name doesn't ring a bell, the context helps. Marcos Valle is a legendary musician from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, known for his work in bossa nova and MPB—música popular brasileira. He's one of those figures whose influence on the genre stretches back decades, and he's coming to Austin from Brazil for this one. He'll be performing with Nossas Novas, so the night is built around his guitar and the band backing him.
Jazz Is Dead is the project bringing him here. It's a Los Angeles-based collective known for its collaborative series, which is exactly what this is: a West Coast project pairing up with a Brazilian master for a single night. The whole thing is presented by Resound and ArtDontSleep.
