Welcome!

When it comes to musical diversity, Brazil has the board pretty well covered: the vice versa influence of Brazil with other cultures allows us to enjoy this musical mingling from dozens of Brazil’s best, especially from musicians born in the month of May.

Right now, Bebel Gilberto is in the spotlight for her birthday week so let’s take a quick peek at the following VISAs (Very Important Special Announcements), and then on with the show:   

Wednesday’s Brazil Back2Back serves up a pair of ‘Bebel’ songs on her birthday – with a special announcement for the newest music channel from Connect Brazil! Listen at the top of the hour at 11 am and 2 pm, and 5 pm CT exclusively on our streaming station. Daily Listening Guide.
