Seu Jorge
More than his 'Life Aquatic' David Bowie covers, this Brazilian beat king makes his Australian debut for SydFest.
Overview
There's not many a cover artist can teach David Bowie about music. But when the art-glam-rock king heard Seu Jorge perform his hits acoustically, in Portuguese, for The Life Aquatic, he said he heard a whole "new level of beauty".
That's certainly no easily-earned praise. Jorge, who cut his deep yet irresistibly tender voice in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, will make his debut Australian performance at Sydney Festival. He’ll be playing an array of his famous, unique interpretations, as well as a bunch of originals, accompanied by a delicious mix of Latin and Caribbean beats, in both live and electronic form.
Seu Jorge is one of our top ten picks of the Sydney Festival. Check out our other favourite events over here.
