Dear friends, What strange times we've all had to go through! Like so many musicians around the world, the lockdown deprived us of performing on stage. But in some way, the biggest amputation was neither this kind of adrenaline, nor even the artistic expression in front of an audience, but human contacts. We have missed each other, and we still miss you. Fortunately, technology offered us a certain substitute to music exchange and helped us keep in touch with each other. But the vibrations, the grace of feeling one's heartbeats synchronised with the rhythm, sadly can’t go through a computer screen. |

SLOW DOWN AND GO PRACTICE The best thing a musician can do in such a situation... ... along with back office work, thinking about these last full and successful months or preparing new arrangements - without knowing when we would be performing them together. And our confined singer made a homemade attempt to record two bossas novas, Samba de verão and Meditação, without her crew. | | |

STUDIO RECORDING The Blue Crew proudly presents its Mashup Chopin! We put all what we love into this 5-in-1 piece: counterpoint, classical references, mesmerising harmonies, groovy sambas, polyphonic dialogues and inspiring poetry. Our producer Emiliano Larrea perfectly understood our needs and made a beautiful mix to sublime our arrangement. |

JAM SESSIONS DEMO CLIP While longing for concerts and jams with our friends, we listened to some recordings of the last gigs. Which gave us the idea to combine them with lovely moments filmed by our audience. In case you could never attend one of The Blue Crew Jam Sessions, this video should give you an idea of the nice atmosphere when we're performing all together. |

LIVE STREAM JAM SESSIONS After months of compelled silence, we are finally gathering again! Under observance of current sanitary measures, naturally. That's why we perform with a very small audience and broadcast our Jam Sessions on Instagram Live and Facebook Live (that also works without an account). A good occasion for our relatives in Germany, Italy, France, Peru, Tanzania and Australia to jam online with us! | | |

CREATING A GREATER LATER A vida é a arte do encontro, embora haja tantos desencontros pela vida. Vinícius de Moraes "Life is the art of encounter, even though there might be so much discord in this life." Although concerts in normal conditions are not planned before a few months, we go on cultivating meaningful music between us, and thanks to social media, The Blue Crew isn't far from you! Saudações calorosas, Nathalie, Johannes, Olf & Daniel |
