Garotas Suecas
You may recall the New York-based band Brazilian Girls. It’s a rocking little ensemble, but somewhat misnamed: there are no girls from Brazil in it. Well along comes a band from Brazil called Garotas Suecas. That means Swedish Girls, but, again, no girls from Sweden in that band. Like Brazilian Girls, the misnomer doesn’t matter. The music is still great. The World’s Marco Werman has more.
