Os Mutantes

Brazil's seminal Tropicália band Os Mutantes returns to The Cedar!

The late ’60s in Brazil produced an explosion of new sounds and ideas that still reverberate throughout the world... during that time, Os Mutantes’ creative cannibalism produced psychedelic gems unlike anything else in the world. They were exactly what their name implies: a mutant genetic recombination of elements of John Cage, The Beatles, and Bossa Nova. A creature too strange and beautiful to live for very long, but too strong ever to fade away. It lives again. (Luaka Bop)

Fuzz rock duo Writer opens.

Check out the After Party featuring The Sex Rays with Joe Roberto and Poverty Hash and DJ Father Time, free with Os Mutantes ticket, or $10 at the door (from 10.30pm). Fundraiser for The Cedar.
