Samba is a style of music and dance, a community celebration, and a way of life. The “Philly Roda de Samba e Choro” presents samba and choro as they are traditionally performed in Brazil: with friends gathered around a table, playing tunes, singing along, dancing, eating, drinking, and filling the souls of all with joy.

With a core group comprised of Fernanda Bravo (voice/pandeiro), Gregg Mervine (cavaquinho), Rob Curto (piano), Mark Stehle (percussion) and Marcos Oliveira (percussion), the Philly Roda plays every first Sunday at the Black Squirrel Club, and features a guest artist each time.

This has grown into Philly's most amazing Sunday afternoon event! Drink a caipirinha, immerse yourself in beautiful melodies, get swept up in the dance and join the community spirit! Come experience the vibrant culture and pure joy of the Roda!

Take in an evening of music from around the world at Black Squirrel Club on Sunday! We'll be presenting a double header of world music starting with our amazing monthly Roda de Samba e Choro, celebrating the music and culture of Brazil. Come sing, dance, smile and have a caipirhina! It's an atmosphere of pure joy! The Roda wraps at 6 PM. Plan to grab some dinner nearby and bring it back to Black Squirrel to secure your spot for WAZUMBIANS presented by legendary bassist Jamaaladeen Tacuma's Ousiders Music Fest. Tacuma will be joining the band for an encore jam! This promises to be a very special evening of amazing music and culture from around the globe.
