about

This piece takes the playful vocal phrasing and melodies of the Cavalo Marinho tradition and fuses them with Baião groove straight from the clubs of Pernambuco.

The song tells a story of a missing girl who has gone in search of the magical treasures of Brazilian music, much to the dismay of her mother.
