Pop Goes The Samba re-imagine much loved pop & soul classics in Brazilian Grooves. Pop Goes The Samba are a pop covers duo with a difference. Pop Goes The Samba are back with a new world class singer Carolina.
British born Paul has been working with Pop & Brazilian music culture for over 30 years and is a guitarist, band leader, arranger & producer for various larger projects. Carolina has been a finalist in the Brazilian version of the tv show The Voice, has worked on major projects in her native Brazil & also is a superb composer with her own solo project. She is also completely bi-lingual allowing to sing flawlessly in both English & Portuguese without an accent.
They combine perfectly in this unique duo and Paul's original guitar synth sound allows them to achieve an amazingly rich & big sound previously unheard of in a guitar & voice setting. Their repertoire covers pop, rock, r&b and soul music classics from the 60's to the present day.
