Rain Dance Music on the Patio-Rio Con Brio, European and New World Music

Join us for Great Tunes and Amazing Wines
Rio Con Brio began in 2006 as a vehicle for virtuoso mandolinist Tim Connell to indulge his burgeoning obsession with the Brazilian national music “choro”. Joined by fellow gypsy jazz string player Mike Burdette, the two soon accumulated a large repertoire of these quirky instrumental tunes from early 20th Century Brazil – predecessor of samba, bossa nova and MPB – complex yet accessible, exotic yet familiar – and all addictively danceable.
