Forro in the Dark brings a traditional Brazilian dance style into a new era with electronic instruments and influences from American and international popular music. Their unique, irresistibly danceable style has been described by Global Rhythm magazine as “a multicultural swinging to and fro that never forgets the past, but always keeps heading into the future.” Hear Forro In the Dark’s Light A Candle, now out on the new Nat Geo Music record label.
Meet Forro in the Dark on the Nat Geo Music site.
