DESCRIPTION:Apresentando a banda de forró Forróçacana diretamente do Brasil\n \nBuy Tickets » \n🇺🇸\nEducArte celebrates its first annual Festa Junina party\, featuring forró super band Forróçacana directly from Brazil! \nFesta Junina is Brazil’s second largest festival after Carnival and just as fun! Celebrate this amazing festival with traditional music and dances like forró and quadrilha. This year\, EducArte presents Forróçacana\, one of Brazil’s most innovative forró bands\, celebrating 25 years of thrilling audiences with their high-energy music. \nForróçacana emerged in 1997 from the union of a young group of musicians who had a shared love for forró pé de serra and were heavily inspired by forró legends Luiz Gonzaga\, Jackson do Pandeiro\, and Dominguinhos. Their unique style\, born from three decades of performance\, combines traditional forró with other Brazilian rhythms such as samba and choro\, while also drawing from other influences such as rock and reggae music. They have made several global international tours and they now perform for the first time in Washington\, DC. \nSpecial guest DJ Grace will open the night. Special thanks to Mulheres Brasileiras de Virginia and Grupo Mulheres do Brasil Núcleo Washington DC for bringing their rich experience and knowledge of the traditional Festa Junina\, complete with typical foods\, Junina flags and decorations\, and a fun enactment of the traditional “casamento na roça\,” or shotgun wedding. Wear your best caipira costume! Forróçacana will bring the energy and get us dancing forró and quadrilha all night. \nThis is a family-friendly event. All ages are welcome. \nPresented by EducArte. \n🇧🇷\nEducArte celebra sua primeira Festa Junina anual apresentando a banda de forró Forróçacana diretamente do Brasil! \nA Festa Junina é o segundo maior festival do Brasil\, após o Carnaval\, com músicas e danças tradicionais como forró e quadrilhas.
