The View From Madeleine's Couch

Biography

 

 

 

As The View From Madeleine’s Couch head into their 13th year together, they remain one of Australia’s  finest world|jazz|fusion ensembles, their energy and passion for Brazilian music undiminished.  Their third c.d is in pre-production, and one of their songs has just been chosen for the soundtrack of a U.S. Indie film – 2009 is looking just as exciting as ’08!

 

The band’s sound is as seductive as ever; from the lush, lounge-vibe of classic bossa nova to pounding, percussive Carnaval style batucadas and sambas, and of course, the band’s vibrant, award-nominated original songs.  

 

Not just a touring, concert and festival band, TVFMC also offer the perfect package for a feel-good private or corporate event. With an extensive repertoire of latin-jazz, Brazilian dance grooves & sophisticated instrumentals, the group has your musical needs covered from pre-dinner cocktails to a post-dessert boogie!  The group’s sound is unique, and they are easily able to trim down from the quintet to a trio for smaller functions.
