O Som Do Jazz has released its first CD entitled Infinita Bossa featuring Rio de Janeiro vocalist Andrea Moraes Manson. O Som Do Jazz is a working band based in the Tampa Bay area of Florida.

Selections include Ela e Carioca, Brigas Nunca Mais, Batucada Surgiu, Lobo Bobo, Berimbau, Caso Serio, Influencia do Jazz, Noa Noa, Deixa, Corcovado, Voce e Eu, Manha de Carnaval, Sea & Salt, Flor de Lis, Voce Abusou & E Com Esse Que Que Eu Vou.

With admiration of Elis Regina, Zimbo and Tamba Trios as reference points, O Som Do Jazz approached Infinita Bossa imagining what the band might have sounded like in a Rio or São Paulo club date circa 1965.
