Caraivana this week on Caminhos do Jazz with Katchie. Here's how they describe themselves..."Coming from different cities in Brazil, the members of the group met one another in 2004 in Caraíva-Bahia, became friends, and--in a simple and unpretentious way--the band was formed." The ensemble vibe is easygoing and their repertoire wide-ranging, with originals and popular favorites--samba, forró, choro and Brazilian popular music (MPB).
