Headline concert by Alma Tropicalia
Live performances by Batuke Samba Funk
Capoeira, Zumba, Brazilian food, art, fashion and fun
Headlining this year’s event are Alma Tropicalia, a Washington, DC-based rock band that reimagines the psych-samba sounds of 60s Tropicália music from Brazil, a mind-bending mix of tropical rhythms, soulful funk grooves and day-glo psychedelia which has quickly earned the group ecstatic reviews and packed performances across the region.
Batuke Samba Funk mixes rhythms from Afro-samba and Brazilian big band with classic 70s funk. The goal of Batuke is to “brazilianize” American sounds, and “Americanize” Brazilian sounds in a perfectly balanced fusion.
