Azymuth is a globally renowned, highly influential Brazilian jazz-funk trio founded in the early 1970s. Their breezy fusion of electric jazz, pop, MPB, samba, tropical disco, and electronic music has influenced three generations of musicians, DJs, and producers. They called their music “samba doido,” meaning “crazy samba.”
After releasing a string of jazz-disco fusion albums throughout the late 70s/early 80s, they became one of the world’s great jazz bands, whose sound translated to dance club DJs. Azymuth have toured extensively this recent years, with UK dates this year including 3 packed out shows at London’s Jazz Cafe and a headline slot at the ever-eclectic We Out Here festival (curated by Gilles Peterson).
