Letter from Helsinki-Cotonou Ensemble

Hi Claudio,

I'm reaching out about Finnish and Beninese group Helsinki-Cotonou Ensemble who come July 7, will release their new album Fire, Sweat and Pastis to North America. Later in the month they will tour Canada.

On Fire, Sweat and Pastis, the Ensemble’s second album available in North America, the octet of musicians experienced in jazz, funk, R&B, and traditional Beninese music intertwine the percussive rhythms of West African Vodun with funky basslines, soulful call-and-response vocals, and virtuosic brass and woodwind melodies.  They invite listeners to join them on a musical journey that is equal parts celebration and reflection. 

Can you help us get the word out about this release? Stream the album, check out the press release, and high-res images here: http://helsinki.rockpaperscissors.biz/ 

Let me know what you think!

Thanks,
Sam
