From R.E.M. HQ - “I first met Nando Reis in 2000 when Barrett and I played on one of his solo records, Para Quandoo Arco-Íris Encontrar o Pote de Ouro. Jump forward twenty two years when Barrett and I were invited to Brazil to do an anniversary tour and some recording. Over the space of eighteen months, we recorded a three record set of new originals with Barrett producing.
The record came out September 6th. It’s a record I’m really proud of and can be heard on most streaming platforms (link in bio). It’s called Uma Estrela Misteriosa.”

Update “If you can track down the three record set, including a bonus record, it’s a pretty cool package. I’m loving my time in Brazil! The first show is Friday in Macapa. I’ll be in touch! ~ Peter”

I love this track.

I’m going to see Steve Wynn in Glasgow next week. I guess my hopes that Peter Buck will make a surprise guest appearance are forlorn. Brazil is a ways away. I wonder what Mike Mills is up to next week…

I haven’t listened to any of the Nando stuff yet, but looking forward to diving in.

I don’t understand the Portuguese language, only a couple of words which is similar to Italian. I’m enjoying listening though :notes:.

This is really fun to watch.
If my translation is right, rehearsal and preparation in the studio before the start of the new tour. .
