Gafieira Rio Miami:

Brazilian Big Band

FACEBOOK EVENT - Invite your friends!

The Gafieira Rio Miami: Brazilian Big Band, led by Latin GRAMMY winner Diogo Brown, will take the stage. This ensemble breathes new life into the sound of Gafieira, a vibrant and historic samba tradition, with a modern, big-band twist. Featuring the talented vocalist Isa Duarte and a selection of top Miami-based musicians, this performance promises to be a highlight of the series.

Both sophisticated and accessible, Gafieira Rio Miami regularly sells out concerts in South Florida and will be touring around the US in the coming year. The band's first music video, for the song "Nó Na Madeira," quickly gained over 10K views on YouTube just days after its release. The video caught the attention of The World, the nationally syndicated program on PRI, which did a feature on how a gafieira big band emerged from the Brazilian community in South Florida. With a powerful five-piece horn section, plus bass, guitar, drums, percussion and the lovely vocals of Isa Duarte, Gafieira Rio Miami fuses samba, jazz and soul inspired by the joyous, 20th century Rio de Janeiro ballroom dance music known as “samba de gafieira”. The group’s repertoire includes gorgeous arrangements of classics by Gilberto Gil, Djavan, Alcione, Wilson das Neves, Moacir Santos and others. Get ready to experience the joyous energy of Gafieira Rio Miami!
