Bossalingo >>>
Would you like to bring an atmosphere of class, elegance, and intimacy to your reception? The Bossalingo Trio provides a Jazz supper-club experience for your dining and dancing pleasure. Cocktails, dinner, and on through dessert, you and your guests will enjoy a unique blend of music as good conversation and romance fills the air.

The combination of Michael Harris' beautiful guitar playing, along with upright bass and drums offer a subtle yet enticing mood that includes various traditional dance selections such as Bossa, Samba, Cha Cha, Swing, Waltz, Rumba, and Tango.

The repertoire focuses primarily on vintage Jazz, Latin, and Brazilian songs, but Bossalingo can do their own amazing version of your favorite song. From a Jazz rendition of a Leonard Cohen tune to an acoustic instrumental version of a Stevie Wonder song, Bossalingo can adapt their subtle style to every genre. They can also perform a Hora for Jewish receptions as well as any style of folk song necessary for the occasion. Simply request the song of your choice at least one month prior to the event, and Bossalingo will learn it.

The Bossalingo Trio is for those who demand good taste and excellence in music. The rhythms and harmonies float through the air at a very pleasing volume level and are never intrusive. Guests can easily converse with each other while listening to some of the most beautiful songs ever composed. Couples will be inspired to dance to familiar favorites as Latin beats fill the room late into the evening.

We just wanted to say "thank you" again for an amazing night. Your music, energy, and professionalism exceeded our expectations. Our friends and family raved about you! We cannot express how much we are grateful for the magic you created. You totally captured what we wanted and then some. All the best.

Dear Michael:

Just wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed your recent performance at our wedding on June 10th. Bossalingo created the perfect atmosphere we were hoping to have. Can’t tell you how many of the guests commented on how great the music was. You guys were great!

Thanks again and we’ll definitely keep you in mind for corporate events and holiday parties we have throughout the year.

Regards,

"It shouldn't be surprising that the Washington, DC area, home to Felix Grant and Charlie Byrd, the two men who helped introduce Brazilian music to a wide audience in this country, should produce a group like Bossalingo. What is surprising is that players so young should have such a strong feeling for this music. They sound like they've been playing it all their lives. And what's even more surprising are the arrangements and improvising...This record is truly a pleasant surprise!"
