THE BRAZILIAN PROJECT

The Brazilian Project was founded in 2016 by Marlene Del Rosario (vocals, keys, percussion) and Richard Viard (guitar), two Greater Boston area musicians and long time friends with a passion for Brazilian music. The duo debuted at a fundraiser concert for victims of Louisiana floods and Huricane Matthew later that year, Due to the overwhelming positive response, they have decided to continue performing and recording under the Brazilian Project name,
