Complicated Animals is a collaboration between Brazilian American songstress Monica da Silva and musician and producer Chad Alger. Their debut EP “In This Game” features six songs in the duos’ self-coined Indie Nova genre. The style mixes breezy Indie Pop with a touch of vintage Brazilian Bossa Nova. Complicated Animals released their first album, “Brasilissima,” under Monica da Silva's name in 2011. The album featured songs in both English and Portuguese and was produced by Chad Alger and Bruce Driscoll (Blondfire, Avicii, Freedom Fry).
Complicated Animals' first single “Aí Então” gained attention from music critics and blogs alike and caught the ear of Jacob Edgar, owner of Cumbancha Records and resident World Music compiler for Putumayo World Music. The track was chosen from “tens of thousands of artists” to be featured on the Putumayo World Music compilation “Brazilian Beat.” Another track from their CD, the upbeat, psychedelic-inspired “That’s Not The Way,” was later chosen by the music director of ESPN to be played during the programming of The World Cup in 2014.
