In the late 70’s early 80’s and beyond, “Made in Brasil” which later became “Som Brasil” delighted Chicago music lovers with energetic and fascinating Brazilian Jazz.
Made in Brazil (Som Brasil Band) is Neusa Sauer’s happy, beautiful vocals and husband Breno Sauer’s sophisticated and brilliant keyboards. In the beginning Paulinho Garcia, now Chicago’s first call guitarist singer of Brazilian Music, played bass, Geraldo de Oliveria percussion and Dede Sampaio drums. The rhythm section changed but Neusa and Breno Sauer were and are Made in Brasil.
