Caçapa‘s debut album Elefantes Na Rua Nova was released on June 12th, 2011. It’s a real taste of northeastern Brazil with Alessandra Leão appearing on a number of tracks.
The term “manguefolk” has recently been give to this style of music by Mais Um Gringo and this is something we will continue here. Elefantes Na Rua Nova is an album of folk music from the north-east of Brazil (i.e. forró, maracatu, coco, baião) given a fresh update by Caçapa and the musicians on this album.
