What a great way to cap off my Spring Residency. It’s been a privilege to perform for you at The Bucks County Cabaret. Thanks to my special guests: Denise Reis, Ken Pendergast and Jodie Kelly for helping transform the evenings into swanktastic deliciousness.
I’ll be taking a breather from the cabaret to tour this summer, but I’ll be back in the fall with a brand new show on September 17 (TICKETS on sale now). See you then!
Brazilian songwriter Denise Reis is back in the U.S.
and she’ll be my guest on stage Friday & Saturday!
Denise is an amazing talent and will join me for a few songs in NYC at Caffe Vivaldi – Friday, and in New Hope PA at The Bucks County Cabaret – Saturday. You should join us, too.
I’m not sure how technology works, but we were able to somehow bend the time-space continuum to have a little Philly-to-Rio jam session. Facetiming some chill Brazilian rhythms at Bruno Migliari’s 8VB studios.
I met Bruno Migliari back in 2011, when I performed several shows with the magical Denise Reis in venues all over Rio de Janeiro. Here we are all performing together at Teatro Café Pequeno in Brazil. I am very excited to have him producing this new song, as well as performing on it. He is all about that bass.

I had an amazing time on tour with my Brazilian friend DENISE REIS back in April, and i’m ecstatic so many of you were able to experience her music and our unique collaboration. Check out some photos from our Spring tour, including the Ultimate Band Selfie, taken above at The Tin Angel in Philadelphia.
Gente, I am so darned excited about these upcoming shows with my friend Denise. She has come all the way from Brazil, her first time in some of these cities, so let’s give her a great big welcome! If you can’t join us for this unique collaboration, you can still get a taste for what is coming by viewing the videos below – which include her incredible ‘voice trumpet’ skills, plus a video of us drinking cachaça in Rio de Janeiro (where I unfortunately speak broken Portuguese with an Italian accent… I’m still learning!). See you soon.

A chance encounter between Avi Wisnia and Denise Reis at a New York City open mic in 2010 resulted in friendship and collaboration. The two artists discovered musical affinity in the influence of Brazilian music and the desire to craft exciting original songs. After a successful run of shows performing together in Rio De Janeiro, Avi and Denise decided to bring their collaboration back to the US where it all began, with the pure and simple purpose of sharing the possibilities of music that transcends boundaries and fuses language and culture.
