Daily Discovery: Beloved George – Acorelar

“Acorelar,” released on the 9th of November, marks the debut of Beloved George, a London-based ensemble that crafts a rich sonic palette by merging diverse musical traditions from Brazil, Angola, Portugal, the UK, and Denmark. This vibrant single captivates with its fusion of Northeast Brazilian rhythms and broader global influences, set against the contrasting backdrop of London’s wintry greys.

At the heart of their sound is the pandeiro, a Brazilian frame drum known for its adaptability across various music styles. The lyrics creatively use “cor,” the Portuguese word for colour, to explore the richness of everyday life.
