ZARDIS
A native of New Orleans' historical Tremé neighborhood and trained as a classical vocalist from a young age, Zardis moved to Los Angeles as a teenager where she first performed largely as an R&B singer with the Don Johnson Orchestra and alongside artists like Solomon Burke.
As one of the L.A. Amassi Center's "top ten female jazz vocalists," Zardis then travelled to Europe to perform and studied at the Royal Conservatory of Music in the Netherlands. She has also since performed as a praise and harmony vocalist with groups like Radiant Voices and Sing, Sing, Sing. Her return home to New Orleans in 2002 would find her with the Delgado Jazz Ensemble Band and serving as the vocal instructor at Delgado College. Zardis' performance at Brazland: Bate Galeria is especially exciting, as this will be her first in years.
RICCARDO CRESPO
Born and raised in south Brasil, Crespo began singing as a young boy with his uncle on his family farm. It was not long before he began playing guitar and composing songs. Following the Brasilian and European acclaim of his 1995 debut album, Riccardo Crespo, the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival invited him to perform in 1999. He immediately fell in love with the Crescent City and made it is second home. www.RiccardoCrespo.com

Currently splitting his time between his native New Orleans and Brooklyn, New York, Tondrae is an eclectic soul - a radiant fusion of hip-hop, blues, rock, and reggae, anchored in what he calls "The Soul Starter Kit" of Wonder, Gaye, Mayfield, Withers, and Hathaway.
He has spent much of the past year performing his full-length original LP, Sun Money, released by Kwality Records in 2012. Earlier this year, Tondrae was selected by Giant Step for Red Bull's "SoundSelect Presents: New York" showcase featuring one of America's most exciting new musicians, contemporary bass virtuoso Thundercat.

Widely acclaimed at some of Los Angeles' most popular progressive club nights including Boombox and Low End Theory, he brings one of his infectiously danceable, round-the-world DJ sets to Jazz Fest week at Brazland: Bate Galeria, closing out the night on the dancefloor from 11:30 p.m. until 2 a.m. www.pudge222.bandcamp.com
