Photo Gallery OS Mutantes swayed the Earl with baroque, psychedelic rhythms

Os Mutantes played the Earl last night (Tues., Nov. 9) with Magic Kids and Ariel Pink. The show had moved over from the much larger Variety Playhouse so naturally the Earl was packed to the rafters. Seeing Os Mutantes now is kind of like seeing a cover band, being that Sergio Dias is the only original member of the group. But the younger crew that he's assembled for this living, breathing Os Mutantes II, particularly Esmeria Bulgari, held their own. Good 3 and 4 part harmonies, baroque, Brazilian rhythms and a lot of beaming smiles onstage just kind of affected everyone in the room.
And of course, when they gave "Georgia on My Mind" a slow and psychedelic makeover, everybody in the building swayed back-and-forth with rapt attention, even the security guy guarding the backstage door.
