TT Syndicate

Portuguese Rhythm and Blues Band

Formed in early 2012 at Porto, Portugal, TT Syndicate comprises roots music lovers with already established musician careers. The band is fronted by Pedro Serra and drummer Nuno Gomez who are well-known as members of The Mean Devils and 49 Special; Nuno Riviera, the man behind the take-off guitar, who fronts “Os Tornados” and plays bass with Nuno Gomez in the Surf-Noir Band “Thee Chargers”; Manuel Oliveira, also from “Os Tornados”, drives the Bass lines and last, but not the least, Hugo Lopes on Tenor Saxophone, Joel Rocha on Baritone Saxophone and Bruno Rocha on Trumpet provide sleazy and groovy brass sounds to the combo. Their sound is an explosive cocktail of Rhythm and Blues, Northern Soul and 60’s Beat. Their debut 7’’ “Last Night”, has just been released in December 2012 by German Label Migraine Records. Sites:
