Forró Family with DJ Calabreso
Sat 22 Feb 2025 7:00 PM - 12:00 AM
Exmouth Market Church Hall, EC1R 4QE
Description
Co-founder and forró lover DJ Calabreso (aka Andy) will be selecting the tunes this week. Expect some banging grooves, new moves, xote shakers, pé de serrá smoothies, baião breakers and very little arrasta pé.
Get ready to grind, to move your mind, step inside and holla your hips whilst sipping the finest caipirinhas amoungst your friends and forrózeiros.
my favourite forró tunes tend to trigger emotions of passion, longing or raw energy which is hard to describe. I instantly fall in love with songs that move me in some way whether they be old or new. It's true that I will never understand the lyrics in the same way that native speakers do, but I fell in love with forró because of the emotion that comes across in such a magical way that it's more than the language" - Andy
