I am Brazilian musician from Amaro's home town of Recife, living in the US since 2001, and had no idea he existed. I watched him live in Chicago 3 days ago without knowing what to expect. 3 days later and I am still hung over from the impact of his music.
Thank you Rhodes and Gilles for properly elevating Amaro's importance and showcasing his voice.

Imagine him and the great Beethoven working together!!!

[@Samuelsilva200920]

Chamou na referencia 👏

[@cesarcarrare]

esse trecho da letra do O Rappa/Yuka foi a melhor definição...rs

[@ivo-andrade]

Incredible session! They should do an album together, such a chemistry!

[@noahcall1234]

bass player's constant baffled look on first song saying: the hell did I end up in this place, this is too hot to be true

[@winstonwolfe5733]

And then playing a masterpiece while soloing on the second tune.

[@DanielWeinstein-el4jg]

Amaro falando inglês é tão puro e lindo, que pessoa incrivel!!

[@JulioSecchin]

Amaro é gênio demais ! Orgulho do Brasil !

[@vagnernazareth8519]

Music improvisation is the ecstasy to free spirits...🎼🎶🔆🎶

[@iengineer_247]

Dude looks like George Duke just a little bit!!!! This is dope btw!!!

[@vincentali5736]

[@ddo580]

Love some George Duke!!! Kid is a chip off the Duke stick, ok?

[@panpandtx8967]

[@VitoriaVianaa]

Amaro Freitas é incrível e fiquei feliz de reconhecer o mesmo baterista de Nubya Garcia, Barrell Jones, FODA!! Que triooo!!

[@aristros]

what a drummer....🔥🔥🔥

[@johnnyprovo988]

I believe he is also the drummer I often see with Nubya Garcia.

[@boynynils179]

Surreal session so much talent between Amaro Freitas and those killers from the London scene

[@humanbass]

His childhood neighborhood is called Nova Descoberta, which stands for New Discovery. Suits him well.

[@TheGhalsall]

Amazing performance and that Rhodes MK8 sounds beautiful

[@arilopes83]

The first song reminds me of ed motta's dwittza album. As a Brazilian, I'm happy to see young musicians developing a good kind of musical influence from bossa nova era.

[@loopmasters2]

fantastic performance, music, musicians, and instruments - the Rhodes Mk8 shines thanks to Amaro's skills and feel for the instrument. wow

[@sergioduque4123]

What a nice session thank you very much to all! On a side note Barrel Jones and Yussef Dayes could prank people

[@musabiyela8077]

Nice keys sound !!!
Keep "Chick Alive "...!!!

[@blakberi]

Blown away - bassist playing the bass left handed but just upside down. I'm sure it's been done but I have never seen it with my own eyes before

[@yadavmohip117]

good eye

[@JIsaacMardis]

That’s why he looks so confused about the whole thing

[@derekskala6705]

Check our Mononeon if you haven't before, he does this as well

[@marteinfocato]

É isso!! Bom, muito bom!

[@ArmandoAbrantes-Ferreira]

Amaro Freitas brings a lot from Hermeto Pascoal, a brazilian multi-instrumentalist and composer who played and recorded with Miles Davis. Check him out also!

[@xiiihypn0s862]

Recifense? Brasileiro? Irado. Só vai ser reconhecido no exterior

Great players, play like a well written speech.
Exceptional players, ask questions of the listener, give enough silence for a response and have a conversation with you.
Amaro is the latter.
