The popular Israeli pop rock band Mashina is already quite familiar with concert venues in the United States, where it has played on several occasions in the past. But until today it has never visited South America.

 

This is about to change, when the band will perform, for the first time in its long career in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, at the end of November.

"Two guys from Brazil approached us, and we established touch with the Jewish community there," said Shlomi Bracha, Mashina's guitarist. "This works well for us, because we've never been to South America, and the show may lead to other tours there," he added.

 

According to Bracha, the band is scheduled to perform at the Cancao concert hall, which regularly hosts great bands from across the world. "We’ll have some real Rock 'n' Roll atmosphere," he promised.

 

When they return from South America, Mashina's members will go into the studio to complete their 13th album. They will also hold several extra concerts in Israel, after all four unplugged concerts they recently held were sold out.
