Nation Beat Biography
Funk. Bop. Forró. Brass.
Pounded by calloused hands, blasted from tightened lips,
It calls across time and continents, uplifting hearts and moving hips and feet.
It’s the force that blew through Louis Armstrong in the twenties.
It’s the power that gets Brazilians dancing in the streets for Carnival.
It’s the freedom that sets the music on fire.
It’s Nation Beat.
The spirit of jazz. The bounce of Mardi Gras. The energy of Carnival. Music that uplifts the soul and connects the past with the future. One Nation under many beats. We are Nation Beat. Dance with us. Get the Beat!
