Sergio Mendes has been looking swank and banging out Brazilian bossa nova shit since, like, before you were thought of.

With over 35 albums and notoriety from a variety of admirers, Mendes has made his place in the world. He’ll get you dancing and leave a stupid smile on your face.

Since recasting himself as a folksinger (with a shelf of Grammys to prove it), Steve Earle has mostly toured solo the last several years.

But he’s supporting his latest album I’ll Never Get Out of This World Alive by reconvening his long-running band the Dukes, adding a couple of Duchesses as well.
