Based in Cleveland for more than two decades, Moises is a gifted guitarist and vocalist born in Bahia, Brazil. He grew up experimenting with rhythms such as bolero, baião, xote, afoxé, frevo, forró, and especially with samba and bossa nova, which are basic to his performances. His soothing voice and charm make for a wonderful afternoon of entertainment for all lovers of Brazilian Jazz. Performing either solo or with his band, Borges is a wonderful storyteller and a vivid, funny performer who plays mostly in the samba and bossa nova traditions, interpreting his original songs and soulfully delivering classics by Jobim, Gilberto, Bosco, and many others. Far away from his native Brazil, the music of his homeland is very much alive when he is on stage.
