Francisco, the Man presents ‘Acabou Chorare’ in tribute to the Novos Baianos

In honor of the New Bahiansthe band Francisco, the Man will do a special show with songs from the album No more cryingreleased in 1972 by the group formed by Moraes Moreira, Pepeu Gomes, Baby from Brazil and company.

The presentation will take place on October 4th at Casa Natura Musical, in São Paulo.

No more crying is the second album by Novos Baianos and features tracks that span generations, such as “Mystery of the Planet” and “The Dancing Girl”. The album is so remarkable that, in 2007, it was elected by Rolling Stone Brazil as the greatest album in Brazilian music.

The public always associated Novos Baianos with us and, the more we listened, the closer we got to them. They were a very important reference in terms of lifestyle and sense of community. It will be a tribute with great affection”, he says. LAZULIresponsible for the voice and percussion of Francisco, el Hombre.

The connection between the bands is not new. In 2020, Francisco, el Hombre published a version of “Brazil Tambourine”opening track No more crying.

It’s an absurd challenge, because the songs are incredible and very well performed. The idea is to put on a show with the style of Francisco, el Hombre, but with the flame of Novos Baianos, with lots of fun and a lot of love for music”, said the guitarist. Andrei Martinez Kozyreff.

The result was a combination of the sonic essence of reggaeton with electronic and punk-rock elements.

The group’s identity is based on a repertoire that ranges from Mrs. Onete and Rubel the Sidney Magaland also extends to the quintet’s performances.

The group is the owner of the hit “Triste, Louca ou Má” and has participated in major festivals, such as Lollapalooza, Rock in Rio, América por Su Música and FimPro.
