SESSA - Grandeza (Repress) - LP - Vinyl [OCT 25]

LP - Black Vinyl repress of the album originally released in 2019.  

An album about his “love for Brazilian music and its many shapes and colours,” Sao Paulo-born Sessa’s debut Grandeza set the scene for who The New Yorker called a
“songwriter cut from Veloso’s mold and blessed with a flair for the intimate, the enigmatic, and the licentious.’

· “Sensual and subtly orchestrated post bossa from the latter day Tom Zé” - Uncut

· “Sessa, a São Paulo native, purrs sinuous ballads that evaporate immediately into the ether. Like his singer-songwriter touchstones, both Brazilian and Leonard Cohenian, he cultivates an air of inscrutability and depth” - New Yorker

· “Acoustic guitars and percussion set up an intricate mesh of syncopation, and in his gentle tenor, with hushed backup vocals overhead, Sessa sings, ‘To the sound of the drums I’ll consume you.’ It’s a brief glimpse of a mystery.” - New York Times

· “A smooth, minimalist flourish on the vibrant musical heritage of Brazil” - Pitchfork

· “A fantastic stripped down love letter to Brazilian music.” - Bandcamp
