| THE FILLMORE, SAN FRANCISCO, CA WITH OZOMATLI DEC. 1st, 2007THE NIGHTLIGHT, BELLINGHAM, WA. WITH OZOMATLI NOV. 18th, 2007 Most currently this summer and fall 2007, SambaDá has performed at some of the biggest music festivals in CA, played sold out shows for their first time in Hawaii and has just made their debut in NYC at SOB’s to a packed house in October! This winter they joining Grammy winning band, OZOMATLI for 10 days on their winter tour playing Seattle to Santa Barbara! SambaDá has also begun work on their new album which will be another collaboration with producer Greg Landau SambaDá is one of the hottest emerging groups on the West Coast music scene, with their mixture of hard hitting dance music and exceptional live show earning them main stage slots at most of the major California music festivals this year. In February, SambaDá headlined the 3 biggest carnival parties in California, in San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego. They were a featured band in the San Francisco Carnival held in May, and have played main stage slots at the Harmony Festival, Sierra Nevada World Music Festival, Whole Earth Festival. Most recently they headlined the Salem World Beat Festival, where they wowed more than 6000 people. In September 2006, SambaDá turned heads with the release of the album “Salve a Bahia”, a celebration of the Afro-Brazilian roots and cross-cultural collaboration. After nearly a decade of mixing musical backgrounds and influences, a new sound had emerged that truly separated SambaDá from any other act in the world. With one foot firmly rooted in California, and another in the deep cultural traditions of Brazil, SambaDá serves up non-stop percussion driven dance music that leaves people dripping wet and calling for more. A mix of samba, capoeira music, funk, reggae and hip hop, the album is the product of their collaboration with 3 time Grammy-nominated producer Greg Landau, who has worked with artists including Susana Baca, Patato Valdes, Maldita Vecindad and Buena Vista Social Club's Juan de Marcos Gonzalez. This new CD features vocalist, percussionist & dancer Dandha da Hora, a native of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil and a long-time member and performer with Ilê Aiyê. Salve a Bahia features original music by bandleader & capoeira mestre Papiba Godinho (also of Brazil) and a guest appearance by Ozomatli’s Wil-Dog Abers. While Brazilin natives Papiba Godinho and Dandha da Hora bring their profound knowledge and respect for the roots of afro-brazilian song and dance, the entire band has developed a type of samba-reggae-funk with a universal appeal. SambaDá musically unites the Americas, drawing from percussion based styles of South and Central America, and blends it with that good old funk and reggae back beat so familiar to crowds of North America. SambaDa’s tunes are playful, vital, and energetic: they make you dance and they make you sing, they are both intimate and exuberant. SambaDá delivers a polished show, whether acoustic on the beach, or at full volume on stage, which is guaranteed to inspire dancing feet and smiling faces. PORTUGUESE TRANS. SambaDá é um dos mais populares grupos emergentes no cenário musical da costa oeste da América do Norte, com sua mistura única de rítimos bem marcados para dançar e shows ao vivo com um lindo visual concedeu-lhes o palco principal da grande maioria dos festivais de música de toda a California este ano: Harmony Festival, Sierra Nevada World Music Festival, High sierra World Music Festival, Whole Earth Festival, Salem World Beat Festival, EarthDance Music Festival, Monterey Jazz Festival. Alem de terem liderado os tres maiores Carnavais de toda a região: San Diego, San Fancisco, e Los Angeles. Em Setembro de 2006, SambaDá virou as cabeças com o album “Salve a Bahia”, uma apoteose às raizes Afro-Brasileiras com colaborações musicais e backgrounds e influências cross-culturais. Um novo som emergiu que verdadeiramente separa SambaDá de qualquer outro artista. Com um pé bem fincado na California, e outro enraizado nas tradições culturais do Brasil, SambaDá põe na mesa uma música percussiva para se dançar sem parar. É de deixar a audiência pingando e pedindo mais. A mixagem que funde samba, capoeira, jazz, funk, reggae and hip hop, no novo album é fruto da colaboração com o produtor Greg Landau (tres vezes nomeado para o Latin Grammy), que produziu artistas como Susana Baca, Patato Valdes, Maldita Vecindad e Buena Vista Social Club's Juan de Marcos Gonzalez. ‘Salve a Bahia’ apresenta musicas originais do mestre de capoeira Papiba Godinho (de Brasilia). Nesse novo CD brilha a dançarina, vocalista e percussionista Dandha da Hora, nata de Salvador, Bahia, Brasil e desde pequenininha, kilombola do Ilê Aiyê. Brilham tambem Gary Kehoe de Minesota na bateria, e os californianos: Anne Stafford no Saxofone e Flauta, Kevin Dorn no Baixo, e na percussão Marcel Menard e Will Kahn. Salve a Bahia conta com a participação especial de Wil-Dog Abers do Ozomatli’s. Enquanto os brasileiros nativos Papiba Godinho and Dandha da Hora trazem conhecimentos profundos das raizes culturais afro-brasileiras, a banda toda traz um tipo de samba-funk com um sabor universal. SambaDá une musicalmente as Américas, sapecando nos estilos percussivos da América do Sul e Central; fundindo tudo isso com um bom Funk e Jazz tão familiar as audiências da America do Norte. As músicas do SambaDá são alegres, energéticas, fazem o público dançar e cantar. SambaDá apresenta Shows bem preparados, ao mesmo tempo: íntimos e exuberantes. Tanto os shows acústicos numa praia aberta quanto os shows a todo volume num espaço de shows garantem inspirar pés dançantes e faces sorridentes na audiência. | |
