BRBQ.
BRBQ is a sunny jazz quintet which brings a freshness and authenticity to playing the music of Antonio Carlos Jobim,
Hermeto Pascoal, João Bosco and other giants of Brazilian jazz.
Four distinctive voices in Scottish jazz, James Brady (trumpet/flugelhorn/melodica), Paul Towndrow (flutes/whistles/sax) Mario Caribé (bass\guitar) and Stu Brown (drums/percussion), join forces with one of the UK’s leading interpreters of Brazilian piano styles, Ed Rice.
Since its inception in late 2022, BRBQ has thrilled audiences across Scotland and beyond, including sell-out shows at Glasgow's Jazz at the Merchants House, Edinburgh Jazz Festival, Edinburgh's Jazz Bar and Aberdeen's Blue Lamp, as well as receiving UNESCO funding to develop new material in 2024.

BRBQ always welcomes enquiries from venues and festivals across the UK for performances. Get in touch.
