Music | NATION BEAT, RED BARAAT
At the heart of Nation Beat's new album, Legends of the Preacher, lies a totally original 21st-century fusion between thunderous Brazilian maracatu drumming and New Orleans second line rhythms, Appalachian-inspired bluegrass music, funk, rock, and country-blues. Their explosive live show -- which is frequently known to burst into crowd-wide Carnaval-style drumming and singing -- is attracting music fans of bluegrass, country and Brazilian music, and outdoor festival-goers. They play with Red Baraat, the first and only dhol ”n’ brass band of its kind in the States, melding the infectious North Indian rhythm Bhangra with brass funk and expressing the human spirit through improvisation and a powerful live sound.
