Known for their raucous parade performances during Carnaval drawing hundreds of percussionists from the public, they will bring their stage concert version to Queens. Their high-energy show incorporates various rhythms and musical styles through the beat of samba, including the traditional “marchinhas de carnaval” (carnival marches), the forró of Luiz Gonzaga, and even baile funk.
Plus Veesh Maria is a Forró band based in San Francisco, CA - Formed by true representatives of the culture bringing the organic sounds of Accordion, Triangle and Zabumba to the forefront of heated Dancefloors! #vivagonzaga
