Foleada is a group of seasoned musicians based in Seattle that plays dance music from the Northeast of Brazil in the style of Forró. Forró draws on many musical styles, primarily Afro-Brazilian rhythms like samba and baião and traditional dance forms from Europe like schottisches and polkas. Forró dance also borrows from Cuban salsa and Samba de Gafieira to create a simple partner dance.
Recipient of the 2023 Jack Straw Artist Support Program, Foleada features Jamie Maschler and Gabe Hall-Rodrigues on accordion, Jeff Busch and Sam Esecson on percussion, Michael Catts on bass, and Brazilian vocalist Adriana Giordano.
