Carla Hassett will be performing the sounds of her Brazilian Pop at The Brass Rail on Thursday, May 24th at 8:00PM and at The Milano Coffee Company on Saturday, May 26th at 8:00 p.m. On her new album, Quero Saber, “Carla dives deeper into her Brazilian roots, exploring bossa nova and the rhythms of Bahia as the foundation for her hooky, electronic pop.” If you like Bebel Gilberto, you will like Carla Hassett’s music.
She has toured and recorded with popular acts Billy Idol, Gino Vannelli, Michael Buble (David Foster), Jon Anderson (Yes), Thomas Dolby, Mark Snow (X-Files, who won an Emmy nod on a track sung by Carla) as well as Latin legends Sergio Mendez, Mexico’s Christian Castro, and Brazil’s Marcelo Augusto. Carla is also the featured vocalist in the highly anticipated Robert Towne (Chinatown, Tequila Sunrise) feature film, Ask The Dust, composed by Ramin Djawadi and Brazilian composer Heitor Pereira. In addition to recording, Carla teaches at Flea’s (Red Hot Chili Peppers) famed Silverlake Conservatory of Music.

too bad she’s playing at the Brass Rail…a predominatelt gay venue; possibly the gayest. For non gay folk like me its a bummer because tonight is my only day off and it happens to be my birthday, and i’m not gay. I would feel uncomfortable being at the brass rail./

Just a thought, if anyone is going to catch Carla at Milano Coffee Co, get there early it’s a cool coffee shop but a tad small.
