I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment. One of my greatest joys all of my life was sharing my finds with my friends. I'm now publishing my journey. I hope that you come along!

Blackjack - Carlos Cafe


Carlos Café is playing since the seventies. Despite played different styles he always searched for true music, no matter the style he played.
He started playing Blues, then Rock and Fusion. In the early nineties he listened to Clapton´s record “From the Cradle”. After that experience he realized that he had to get back to his roots.
Since that moment he dedicated almost all his time to play the blues, but now, with all his knowledge, acquired in his many musical experiences.
Shortly the first ideas were emerging. That´s the origin of the CD
“Carlos Café & os Mestres do Blues” (Carlos Café & Blues Masters).
The project is a tribute to the musicians that more influenced him in his musical life. He wrote original arrangements to standards like Sweet home Chicago and Summertime and wrote original songs in tribute to Robert Johnson, BB King, Johnny Winter and Albert Collins. All of the songs have their own identity.
The arrangements were written based on the emotion that the song transmits, like Carlos says:”the story that the song tells us”. Despite that, the CD has a very unique identity.
Carlos summarizes:”The CD is a celebration of my maturity as a musician”.
The eleven tracks sound blues that came from the best references but with varied spices, like different accents of the same language.
It´s hard to write about music, it´s easier to listen to this record and let your heart explain you what good music can do.
Carlos Café just released his second solo CD, this time exploring blues style and classic rock, based on his extensive experience as a musician and composer. The name of his new CD is Bagagem Código Blues (Luggage Code Blues).There are eight original songs written by him and three standards with an original arrangement.
