Bio:
Scotland’s Paul McKenna has long been ranked among our finest younger singers and songwriters, armed with a powerful yet intensely emotive voice and passionate social conscience, often expressed through his songs, a combination that’s brought frequent comparisons to the great Dick Gaughan.
He and his band – comprising Robbie Greig (fiddle), Conal McDonagh (pipes/whistles), Conor Markey (banjo/bouzouki/guitars) and Ewan Baird (percussion) – draw on both Scottish and Irish roots, in a dynamic, full-bodied array of original and traditional material, along with songs by like-minded authors including Peggy Seeger, Alistair Hulett and Jim Reid. Following 2016’s tenth anniversary release Paths That Wind, they’re currently at work on their fifth album.

▶ Brazil has something called "jeitinho" (zhay-TEEN-you), the "little way". In a land where the official way is often impossible, people get things done by other means.
▶ The matrix is jeitinho. It allows splendid Brazilian musicians to be discovered and accessed from everywhere. But to work for the Brazilians, it has to work for everyone.
▶ All explained inside the dot-defined window immediately below (curated artists below this window)... from Brazil, with love!
This matrix is predicated on the fact that fame & fortune are not inextricably linked to talent, dedication, and even genius.
Brazil has something called "jeitinho", the "little way". In a country where the official way is so often impossible, people have to be creative. Do end runs around problems and powers-that-be.
