Choroloco is an acoustic trio of Seattle musicians specializing in choro, a highly melodic and rhythmic form of Brazilian popular music that originated in early 1900’s Rio de Janeiro. They have recently expanded their repertoire to include classical and original music.
The musicians – Stuart Zobel (7 string guitar), Naoyuki Sawada (cavaquinho and bandolim), and Brandi Ledferd (pandeiro and vibraphone) came together in 2013, bringing their experience in Brazilian music as well as different musical genres such as tango and classical music to create a sound that appeals to lovers of instrumental music of all kinds.
