BSM Bussin' It Through Europe This Winter
28 April 2010
Batucada Sound Machine are gearing up for their second pilgrimage to Europe. After the success of their previous UK tour in 2007, they have lined up a string of dates through Portugal, Spain, Holland, Germany, Belgium and the UK.
Including festival appearances at The Ollin Kan Festival (Portugal), The Afro Latino Festival (Belgium), Wereldfeest Festival (Holland), and the Mouth of Tyne Festival (UK), the streamlined 10-piece crew will be on fire as they play a total of at least 20 dates through June and early July.
The tour will also be supporting the release of their album 'Rhythm & Rhyme' in Europe and the UK.
As part of their fundraising efforts the band is putting on a massive Auckland show on Fri May 14th at the Monte Cristo Room, and further shows in June in Wellington, Napier and Gisborne.
Tickets are available through Eventfinder, Real Groovy and Conch. Support from the lovely Jennifer Zea and Bobby Brazuka.
BSM will also have a new limited edition EP for sale at the gig, featuring unreleased tracks and remixes.
Get along and support them at what will be their last Auckland show for some time…ay
