Brazilian slang for "country bumpkin," Matuto plays original music inspired by Northeastern Brazilian Rhythms and American Folk. Over the past 3 years, Ross has submerged himself in Brazilian rhythms as a member of Cyro Baptista's world renowned percussion ensemble "Beat the Donkey." With Matuto, this South Carolina native mixes the best of Bluegrass and Baiao for a sound like a Carnival in the Appalachian Mountains.

With Clay Ross - Guitar and Vocals, Rob Hecht - Fiddle and Vocals, Edward Perez - Bass, Tim Keiper - Drums, and Itai Kriss - Flute.

The Album Features Special Guests: Cyro Baptista (Paul Simon, Sting), Richie Barshay (Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock), Ze Mauricio (YoYo Ma, Choro Ensemble), Rob Curto (Lila Downs, David Krakauer), and Scott Kettner (Nation Beat, Maracatu NY)
