Based in Philadelphia for a great part of their career, Minas has been on the forefront of world music and Brazilian jazz in the Northeast for the past 30 years.

Led by the couple Orlando Haddad and Patricia King, Minas has recorded and released six CDs, five of them in Philadelphia.

Minas has won “Best of Philly” from Philadelphia Magazine twice. They write original music as well as perform classic Brazilian standards by A.C. Jobim and Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66.

King plays the piano, while Haddad performs vocals and strums the guitar.
