Hopeful Olympic News!!

We entered a selection process by Rio city hall to choose acts to play on the cultural stages around the city during the Olympics, and today they released the results of the first round of classification. Not only is Favela Brass through to the next round, but our point score on the first round put us in 46-50th place for that round (140 projects will be chosen in the end).

Fingers crossed!!!
