SUMMARY:Forro in the Dark
LOCATION:AB Club - staand (Anspachlaan 110\, 1000 Bruxelles)
DESCRIPTION:Vous allez danser à leur écoute ! Mêlée de folk\nbrésilien\, la musique festive de Forro in the Dark booste\nassurément le moral. Basés à New York\, nos quatre\nBrésiliens ont adapté leurs tonalités revigorantes à la\nGrosse Pomme (mais aussi au reste du monde et au 21e\nsiècle). Ils ont été aidés en cela par David Byrne\, qui\na également prêté sa voix à l’un de leurs titres\, et\nBebel Gilberto\, avec qui ils ont déjà eu l’occasion de\ntourner. Un nouvel album est annoncé\, d’ici la fin de\nl’année\, chez Rough Trade. Et tant qu’à écrire en\nanglais\, profitons-en pour reprendre leurs propres mots :  \n 'Picture this: it's an exceptionally hot\, muggy\nnight in the heart of Northeast Brazil. While the ambient\nforest and wildlife sounds engulf most of the region\, a\nbright rhythmic pulse beats out of a large\, illuminated\ndance club. A sweaty group of men and women\, who should be\nexhausted after a long week's work\, dance exuberantly\npelvis-to-pelvis in a waltz-meets-salsa like motion to a\ncolorful vibrant band effortlessly performing a style of\nmusic centered around the bass-like thump of a zabumba\, the\nawkward wail of an accordion and a large metal triangle\nrattled so quickly\, you'd think the musician was having\na seizure.Well ok\, Forro in the Dark is not quite that type\nof traditional forro band\, instead they are bringing an\nupdated style of the music to the hipsters and club-goers of\nNYC\, but the sweaty\, excitable vibe is still undeniable.\nSupplementing the traditional instrumentation with electric\nguitars\, an array of flutes\, modern percussion and other\ncontemporary instruments\, along with the help of David\nByrne\, Bebel Gilberto and Miho Hatori\, Forro in the Dark\ncapture the immediate\, pleasure-craving core of forro for\nmodern audiences to relieve their stress on the dance floor\njust like the Brazilian workers of the early 1900s.Forro in\nthe Dark is Mauro Refosco on Zabumba and Vocals; Gilmar\nGomes on Percussion and Vocals; Davi Vieira on Percussion\nand Vocals; Guilherme Monteiro on Guitar and Vocals; Jorge\nContinentino on Pifano\, Baritone Sax and Vocals; and Smokey\nHormel on Baritone Guitar\, Slide Guitar and Vocals.'   \n EXTRA EXTRA BANDINFOAbandoning the accordion\, they've\nadded Jorge's pifano\, a wooden flute from the Northeast\nof Brazil\, Guilherme's twangy guitar\, and Davi's\ntimbau\, a Bahian drum. The new additions float between the\nbeat of Mauro's zabumba\, a drum with both snare and\nbass pitches\, and the tweet of Davi's triangle.        \n\n\nhttps://www.abconcerts.be/fr/agenda/forro-in-the-dark/a105J000001wgbjQAA
