Tres Fogos
The group Tres Fogos, is a project started by The Fogo Posto´s founding members Roger Lestavius and Zeldan Zarutha, and a Dobro player Antti Vuorenmaa. It all started one day when Roger and Zeldan began wondering about the meaning of life as they sank deeper and deeper into the darkness. It wasn´t long before they came across a poor wayfaring dobro player walking a parallel path, who was wondering about the same things. They decided to set out together and seek some comfort and solace in their lives, and soon found the world of African American spirituals. They started to jam together, and after a few weeks recorded their first album "Paraíso", which will be out in spring 2011. Hallelujah!!!
