About
Zuco 103 is a Dutch-German-Brazilian trio founded in 1999 by drummer Stefan Kruger, keyboardist Stefan Schmid and singer Lílian Vieira, all former students at the Rotterdam Conservatory. Their self-coined genre 'Brazilectro' fuses samba, bossa nova and jazz with electronic grooves, drum 'n' bass and funk. Ten studio albums, a Dutch Edison Jazz/World Award (2024) and festival stages from Glastonbury to Fuji Rock mark them as one of the most internationally recognised acts to emerge from the Dutch music scene.
