“Nós Novo offers a worldly mix of sea shanties, Celtic reels and airs, Brazilian soul and jazz spirit, played via a mix of strings and percussion instruments and the soaring voice of singer Jo Lawry. More amazing than the boldness of the mix is the seamlessness with which it all comes together…”
-Time Out New York
“…a striking new album, ‘Strange Sweethearts in America,’ which advances a jazz-based take on traditional Celtic
music,”
-Nate Chinen, the New York Times
Vibraphonist and percussionist James Shipp brings the unique sounds of NÓS NOVO to the Irish Arts Center for a special one-night-only performance. Nós Novo blends traditional Irish melodies and rhythms with Brazilian rhythms and collective jazz improvisation, with influences ranging from Andy Irvine to Milton Nascimento to Björk. Featuring James Shipp on vibraphone and percussion, Jo Lawry on vocals and fiddle, Gilad Hekselman on guitar, and Rogério Boccato on drums and percussion, with special guest Becca Stevens on vocals and charango.
