Zuco 103 is an astonishing mix between a charismatic Brazilian singer, a Dutch sampleur-beater and a German keyboard player. This talented basic trio associates a guitarist, a percussionnist and a bass player. They all have their own personality but joined together, they form an innovative and cordial band with a powerful and communicative enthusiasm.
They’ve been on a rollercoaster since. Ten years of Zuco 103. Seen it all: from North Sea Jazz, Bumbershoot Seatle to Rock Werchter, playing everywhere : from Moscow to Tokyo. Quite a carnival.
The band did not just invent Brazilectro – jazzy, Brazilian and electronic components combined. The characteristic Zuco 103-sound lies in their choice of additives (Afro-Cuban, drum ’n bass, Ethiopian, West-African and dub) they’ve mixed along the way. Three musicians on a quest for brilliance inspire and enrich each other; they clash, there’s firework. It’s happening!
