Jaibremar by Jaider de Oliveira

Jaibremar play the latest original compositions of Brazilian born, Australian based guitarist Jaider de Oliveira. Jaider’s compositions consist of the beautiful harmonies and uplifting melodies that his home state , Minas Gerais, in Brazil, is known for as well as drawing on the rich and vibrant rhythms to be found across the country. With a musical career spanning 50 years, Jaider has focussed this experience on the creation of music referencing both the old and the new.
Featuring Jaider’s unique guitar bass combination and vocals, Brendan Hook on saxophones and clarinet, and reuniting us after 20 years with Melbourne based maestro of Brazilian styles ,Mark Grunden on drums and percussion, Jaibremar fuses afro, funk, samba, baiao, bossa, choro and jazz with a generous mix of traditional roots music.
The group began as a duo project 5 years ago to document the music from Jaider’s extensive career but soon evolved into a powerhouse trio playing new music especially written for it. Now, in his early 70’s, Jaider has continued to develop his sound. The trio sounds like a quartet with Jaider filling the roles of both guitarist and bass player. Both Brendan and Mark compliment his playing beautifully to bring out the ultimately joyous spirit of the music.
