Brazilian Girls is a band from New York City known for their eclectic blend of electronic dance music with musical styles as diverse as tango, chanson, house and lounge. None of the members are actually from Brazil and the only female in the band is lead singer Sabina Sciubba[1]. Other members include keyboardist Didi Gutman, drummer Aaron Johnston and former bassist Jesse Murphy.
The band has released three studio albums up to date: Their self titled debut album in 2005; their second album, entitled Talk to La Bomb, released in September 2006; and third album New York City, released on August 5, 2008.
The daughter of Italian and German parents, Sciubba was born in Rome on February 23rd 1975 and grew up in Munich and Nice. Growing up, she learned to speak Italian, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese and English, languages which she regularly incorporates into her songs (all six languages are featured on their debut album). Before the formation of Brazilian Girls, Sciubba recorded two jazz albums - You Don't Know What Love Is with pianist Chris Anderson and Meet Me in London with guitarist Antonio Forcione.
