For weeks after their sizzling show burned up the stage at the Freight last time around, folks were buzzing about the amazing artistry and synergistic energy between Hamilton de Holanda and Mike Marshall. If you were lucky enough to be there, you know what we mean. If not: here's another chance, as these two masters of the mandolin (or bandolim, in Brazil) once again bring the fruits of their ongoing collaboration to the Freight stage.

Brazilian master Hamilton's charisma and communicative enthusiasm on stage, his flawless playing, and his sophisticated creativity make him one of the most remarkable musicians of the younger generation of performers and composers. Mike is at the vanguard of acoustic music as one of the world's most accomplished instrumentalists, a master in a variety of styles including bluegrass, classical, swing, and Brazilian music, and creator some of the most provocative and engaging new acoustic music. Together? Fireworks!

Join the two for a stunning night of music without borders, spotlighting their recent duo CD, New Words.
