Mbrascatu - Sunday Series

Mbrascatu is a cross-pollination of numerous influences from spaghetti Western, Eastern European immigrant dance music, psych rock, and folk to create a unique blend of sounds and musicality.   Along with bands like Calexico, Devotchka and Gogol Bordello, they infuse modern indie music with a global flavor. Mbrascatu was formed in 2010 in Portland, OR by singer-songwriter and guitar player Andrea Algieri.  The group blends hypnotic rock grooves with energetic Italian vocal lines sung with group harmonies by a band of seasoned musicians.  Mbrascatu bring an energetic vibe with their exotic rock n’ roll that has pleased packed audiences around the Pacific Northwest, the United States, and parts of Europe.  A dynamic band that can escalate to a frenzy in the rock numbers and pull it all back to a whisper for their ballads.  A group filled with great musicians with the stage presence to match.
