The Brazilian sound of Sandy Cressman and her band Homenagem Brasileira (“homage to Brazil”) will have you moving in your seat, dreaming of the colors, spices, and electric energy of the Federative Republic’s rich musical tradition. Of her brisk and alluring style, The San Francisco Observer exclaimed, “Cressman pours out her love for the delightfully sensuous and melodious Brazilian lyrics .”
