ABOUT
Cabo Frio's recording career began in 1982, with the release of their self-titled album; at that time they were at the forefront of the genre of music called fusion. Back on the scene with several original members contributing, Cabo Frio is excited about the release of its new album, Island Dance on KEZIA Records nationally distributed by IDN.
Island Dance is fresh new music from Cabo Frio and from the silky smooth "You Don't Know" to the festive "High Tide" featuring Chris Vadala on flute to the title track "Island Dance" featuring John Whitney (guitarist for contemporary jazz great Greg Karukas) one can tell that this project is full of the warmth and quality that has made the contemporary jazz genre so great.
