Fernando Holz Quintet (at AmazingThings)
Fernando Holz is a Brazilian singer/songwriter in the tradition of Jobim, Djavan and Ivan Lins. His effortless singing style is like a gentle ocean breeze, and his sambas will have you dancing in the aisle. Backed by a dynamite rhythm section and the sultry sounds of Jon Simmons’ trombone, Fernando’s music will transport you to a warm, magical place. “In addition to being an excellent singer, Holz is a composer of great sensibility…beautiful and provocative melodic lines. But the most significant part of his work as a composer is represented by his lyrics.” Martin Pillsbury, Ritmo Brasileiro Jon Simmons on trombone; Molly Flannery on piano; Jason Davis on bass; Steve Rose on drums *** The Amazing Things Art Center, 160 Hollis Street in Framingham, MA.
