Zeep - Nina Miranda and Chris Franck Present Zeep

From cosmopolitan London to inspirational Brazil, Zeep bring you an album inspired by the attitude of the '70s when music was live, urgent, right-on, scruffy, funky and folksy. Imagine Led Zep, The Meters, Joni Mitchell and The Beatles jamming in Brazil with Tropicalistas such as Gal Costa, Gilberto Gil & Os Mutantes - where rock 'n' roll, funk and classic pop get spiced up with a little samba magic - and you're on the right track.Nina and Chris were involved in two of the biggest selling and critically acclaimed Brazilian influenced acts of the past decade - Smoke City (still remembered for their seminal 'Underwater Love' track as featured on the Levis advert) - and 'Da Lata', signed to Chris Blackwell's Palm Pictures label. They have also collaborated with a number of world renowned musicians such as Tony Allen, Baaba Maal, Ernest Ranglin, Na�ao Zumbi, Marisa Monte, Sly and Robbie, Nitin Sawhney, Jah Wobble, Femi Kuti and Bebel Gilberto.
