Jazz Is Dead

We first brought @marcosvalle_oficial to the US in 2019 to play a concert in LA and record an album inside of our studio. It is beyond our wildest dreams that only five years later we announce a 16 city tour celebrating the 80th birthday of the legend. ✨ Marcos is Brazilian royalty! Join us as we embark on a musical journey celebrating the timeless magic of his legacy. It also brings us much joy to have @azymuthoficial and @00brainstory00 joining the tour for a few dates!
