DEODATO SIQUIR & BALANCO [DK]
23/05/2009 | 16:30 | Musikhuset Filuren

It's not that often that the drummer is also the lead singer, but that's the way it is with Deodato Siquir, who was born in Mozambique but moved to Sweden in 2001. With Balanço, he performs his very catchy Afro jazz, which is virtually irresistible. "Balanço" is also the title of the debut album, which has achieved great recognition on the world music scene.

Presented in association with JazzDanmark and World Music Denmark

Career start: 1988
Most recent album: "Balanço" (2007)
