Fred Jorge e os Maiorais

Fred Jorge e os Maiorais is a vibrant Brazilian band led by singer, DJ, and vinyl record collector Fred Jorge. They are known for their authentic and danceable blend of black Brazilian music genres, including samba, soul, classic funk, afrobeat, and hip hop. Their sound pays homage to the roots of samba soul and funk, inspired by legends like Tim Maia and bridging Brazilian music with North American icons such as Curtis Mayfield, James Brown, and George Clinton. The band’s music is carefully crafted using vintage instruments and equipment, recorded digitally to balance an old-school feel with modern quality. Their first album, initially released years ago, was remastered and relaunched by Tropical Diaspora® Records, highlighting their commitment to preserving and revitalizing this rich musical tradition.
