“We can’t talk about the history of jazz orchestras in Portugal without talking about the important role of Zé Eduardo”. (Pedro Guedes). In June 2020, Orquestra Jazz de Matosinhos opened its doors to composer and bassist Zé Eduardo, one of the most remarkable figures in the history of national jazz. The album is filled with original music from different scenes that take us through landscapes of the 70s and 80s - a swing, a bossa, a bolero -, and we’re given a taste of music written during a first quarantine too. This was also the time to record a commission from OJM itself with the sea in the background and even an arrangement of an old song - the only that wasn’t composed by Zé Eduardo - that seemed important to remember.

Squirrel Nut Zippers had the good fortune to make it to the big leagues at the same time the swing revival of the 1990s crested. Although the group's roots stretched far beyond the Rat Pack – they were informed by New Orleans jazz, hot dance music, Harlem jazz, and other jumping music of prewar America – they nevertheless benefited from the lounge revival, which helped lift their 1996 album, Hot, and its accompanying single, "Hell," into the Billboard charts. Squirrel Nut Zippers kept touring into the early 2000s, after which they went on hiatus. Leader Jimbo Mathus revived the group in 2008 for a live album but it wasn't until 2018 that they released a new album, Beasts of Burgundy.

“I grew up in the jazz Manouche circles, which are dominated by swarms of guitarists – it’s not always easy to fit in as a singer! Most of the music has no lyrics, and the melodies are often too guitaristique to be sung. The microcosm fascinated me and I too wanted to participate in the Django repertoire… I saw only one option: I had to write my own lyrics, tell my own stories, reinvent his music in my own image.”
