The Brazilians Mk3. We were told by a lot of people that we wouldn’t be able to find a replacement for Crippsy in Cairns. The Naysayers were right, we couldn’t find anyone in Cairns that was good enough and not already playing in at least 2 other bands. As it happens we had to import someone from outside Cairns! We would like to welcome mr Joel Penaluna as The Brazilians new drummer from Dec 2020. Joel is moving to Cairns from Thursday Island in December. We have already had 3 jams with Joel and he is an absolute weapon on the drums. He is currently a music teacher on Thursday Island, spent years in the Army band playing 6 gigs a week, and he had us when he told us that his biggest influence was John Bonham. Thanks everyone that applied, but there could be only one!
