Featuring wistful Brazilian vocals and lyrical guitar, Max Hatt / Edda Glass offer intimate interpretations of Bossa Nova, Jazz, and original material. “Bossa is so minimal and unaffected,” says vocalist Edda Glass. “It was originally sung for a few friends in tiny Rio de Janeiro apartments. It’s complex and tricky, but it sounds as easy and natural as humans whispering to one another.” Glass’s carioca-accented Portuguese and elastic phrasing speaks to a long and abiding love affair with the Brazilian genre, which spills just as naturally into the duo's jazz repertoire. Juxtaposed with her exploration of husky, edged timbres, Glass creates a haunting vocal style that is subtle, unmistakable, and personal. “We live in a hyped up world‚” says guitarist Max Hatt. “We’re over stimulated, measured out in sound bites and ringtones. It’s the information age and we’re swallowed up by this stuff. But is there any real communication going on, is there any intimacy? That’s kind of what we’re about.” Watch their PBS feat
