Born in Rio de Janeiro, guitarist, composer and arranger Ricardo Peixoto came to the U.S. by way of a scholarship to the Berklee College of Music, and later settled in the Bay Area. An inspired improviser with a keen compositional sense, Ricardo's eloquent style evokes images far beyond his Brazilian territory. In addition to his most recent recording 'Scary Beautiful', Peixoto's long-standing partnership with vocalist/composer Claudia Villela has produced the acclaimed CD 'Inverse Universe'. Peixoto has recorded and performed with, among others, Flora Purim and Airto, Claudia Villela, Bud Shank, Dom Um Romão, Claudio Roditi, Toots Thielemans and Dori Caymmi.

Guitarist, composer, arranger, and teacher Carlos Oliveira, originally from the state of Pernambuco (Northeast region of Brazil), started playing the guitar in his teens but lived in the US since 1980 teaching and performing his native music in which he showcases a variety of Brazilian music styles. His CD Brazilian Origins was released in 2000, and his group Brazilian Origins has appeared as main and introductory acts for great Brazilian artists such as Sergio Mendes, Jaques Morelenbaum Quartet, Rosa Passos, and has appeared at many important venues like Yoshis, Kuumbwa Jazz, San Francisco, San Jose and Monterey Jazz Festivals
