Artist Info: Ayom

Ayom is the collaboration between Barcelona-based Brazilian singer and percussionist Jabu Morales and Italian accordionist Alberto Becucci.

"Their sound is a mix of Brazilian, Tropical, Afrolatin and Afrolusitan sounds played with Irresistible swing, like tropical sun penetrating grey clouds".

The name, Ayom, refers to the "Lord of Music" that in Afro brazilian mithology (Candomblè) exists in the tambor and taught humans to play music and sing. [read more...]
