Forró Brazuca

About Me

Forró Brazuca plays the sensuous upbeat sounds of northeastern Brazil like no other band on the West Coast. Inspired by the music of Luiz Gonzaga, Jackson do Pandeiro, Trio Virgulino and Dominguinhos, Forró Brazuca performs Latin, folk and roots music at its festive, rollicking best! Formed by four San Francisco-based Brazilians—each from a different region of Brazil—in early 2007, this group has been bringing its accordion-powered dance music (very similar to zydeco and Cajun music) to venues all across the Bay Area.
