Brazilian music has a new sound with the band’s debut Humanish, with an unprecedented sound, coming from the mixture of modern, heavy and swinging seventies climates, without leaving asidethe Brazilian roots. Formed by musicians who had already passed through major
national groups of the alternative scenario that played at festivals and opening for bands like Placebo, Pixies, TeenageFanclub, Weezer, Mercury Rev and others, the band featured Carlos Trilha to produce their debut album.
A strong characteristic of the band is to have two vocalists and training have a ”different”, replacing the severe low for a baritone guitar and synthesizer, with the saxophone, drums, percussion and guitar - expanding horizons of sounds and interpretations. With this mixture, Humanish show takesthe listener a modern synthesized sounds and valuing dynamic for those who like good music.
The fruits of labor have begun to be harvested. The single “Eu acredito em você” released last year was highlighted at Rolling Stone Magazine and is in the list of bets on the site for 2011 Rock In Press, specialized in brazilian music scenario.
For Arícia, art is an offering, a way to lessen the sufferings of many, even the recently departed. Thus, her work is dedicated to and celebrates feminine divinities; the Indian and African women who inhabited this continental country and gave up their lives during decades of slavery and pain. If the ‘terreiro’ drums make the connection with the divine, then on the dance floor the experience is repeated with joy and abandon. ‘The Queen of Angola commands us to dance’; she sings – and we all obey. You cannot stand still with this calling.
Arícia has paid attention to every detail of this high quality production. It is a technically accurate and pure production that has the energy of live music. For over a year, she tested this repertoire on stage with the powerful Trio of musicians Bruno Silveira (drums), Joao Paulo Deo Gracias (bass) and Mauricio Caruso (guitar); then with a well-rehearsed band she recorded the base lines. The artistic direction of the CD is also hers, as well as all the arrangements which are also shared with the band and with Carlos Trilha and Fernando Morello, her partners since the end of the 90`s.
Aricia gained much success early on in her career; she was a hit in the nightclubs and on the stages of Rio de Janeiro, with a 9-piece band and her blend of pop and Tropicalism that came straight from Bahia. Back then the music scene was lacking originality. Her first album was released in 2000, as an ‘independent production’ -something which was unheard of at the time. She was one of the first artists to fearlessly mix Tropicalism (and particularly Gilberto Gil’s music) with Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder. Today, diversity is a must in Brazilian cultural expression and being independent is the strategy many use to survive.
Vinicius de Moraes once said that ‘samba is a way of praying’. This album is all about celebrating life with the wisdom of someone who knows how to follow the highs and lows of the tide and waits for the right time. It is about paying attention and doing the right thing, and on this occasion the right thing to do is to listen to “Onde Mora o Segredo/ Where Secrets Dwell” very loud and let it infect you with the joyful power of the music of Arícia Mess.

Ve que o meu sorriso é verdadeiro
Meu coração está desperto
É sereno nosso amor
E santo este lugar
Dos tempos de tristeza
Tive o tanto que era bom
Eu tive o teu veneno e o sopro leve do luar
Porque foi calma a tempestade
E tua Lembrança
A minha estrela
Da alfazema fiz um bordado
Vem meu amor
É hora de acordar
Tenho um jasmin
Tenho hortelã
Tenho um cesto de flores
Eu tenho um jardim e uma canção
Tenho o verão
Tenho valor
Eu tenho um desejo e uma oração
Vivo feliz
Tenho um amor
E eu vou cantar uma canção pra mim
Vem que é hora de acordar
Vê que a minha força é santa
Como foi santo o meu penar
Pecado é provocar desejo
E depois renunciar
Porque foi calma a tempestade
E tua Lembrança
A minha estrela
Vê que o meu sorriso é verdadeiro
Meu coração está desperto
É sereno nosso amor
E santo este lugar
Tenho Jasmim
Tenho Hortelã
Eu tenho um anjo
Eu tenho uma irmã
Com a saudade teci uma prece
Preparei erva cidreira pro café da manhã
E eu vou cantar uma canção
Eu vou cantar pra mim
E eu vou cantar uma canção
Eu vou cantar pra mim
E eu vou cantar uma canção
Eu vou cantar pra mim
