Jammil e Uma Noites

The members of Brazilian ska-reggae-rock group Jammil e Uma Noites (Tuca Fernandes, Manno Góes, and Beto Espínola) originally came together in 1994 as an informal cover band, sketching their repertoire from artists such as for example Bob Marley, UB40, and Jorge Ben. The music group performed in beachfront pubs, mixing American rock and roll influences using the music from the Caribbean islands as well as the African-inspired rhythms of the indigenous Brazil. The Bahia-based music group soon joined various other groupings like Banda Beijo, Rapazolla, Banda Eva, among others at the front end edge from the axé motion, a popular mixture of Brazilian/Caribbean designs like samba, reggae, maracatu, and axé spirit. First noted within the ’80s, axé was completely swing with the past due ’90s using a quickly growing national group of fans. By 1997 Jammil e Uma Noites got captured the eye of the neighborhood recording sector, and were provided a offer by EMI for the discharge of the debut record, Tanta Coisa Mudau. Jammil released another record with EMI entitled Contato (1998) before switching brands to Abril Music. The music group would release approximately a record each year, using progressively obscure and individually run record businesses, and 2006’s Luau premiered without the label support. The music group is constantly on the tour nationally, keeping a die-hard grassroots group of fans.
