Culture Trip stands with Black Lives Matter. The mix of cultures has led to an extraordinary diversity of sounds which extend far beyond the familiar samba and bossa nova beats. Sobral uses his music to express his views on racial bias and intolerance issues, and pushes his listeners to unite for social revitalization. This quartet says it touches on the past to find the future.

Their simple goal is to play what they like and sing what they want. The result is a delightful mix of blues, country and rock that appeals to a range of tastes.
