Trópico de Nopal and Samba Society are pleased to announce our 3rd annual “Samba do Trabalhador” event! This epic samba – held in the traditional circular format, blurring the lines between the audience and the musicians – has become the L.A. staple of old-school, roots samba.
Kátia Moraes will be displaying her art in the gallery!
If you have not been to a samba event at Trópico, you have no idea what you’re missing! This gallery/art space is a perfect family-friendly venue with a lovely, eclectic mix of L.A. artists, music lovers, movers and shakers. With Samba Society at the helm, this is THE place to get a full dose of deep samba, batuque, partido alto, and samba de terreiro.
Samba Society features some of L.A.’s finest musicians, frequently hosts very special guests, and always breaks out an eclectic and unpredictable set of vintage and new sambas by legendary (though sometimes obscure) composers, and “B” sides of the samba canon. The band is a collective of 10+ multi-faceted musicians led by Beto González.
REYES spinning between sets!
