About this Event
Caetano Veloso is touring in Europe, he just announced that this will be his last ever international tour, but his European tour in September does not include London, so we decided to put together a poignant homage to this brilllant artist, a night filled with beautiful songs like "Sampa" (video below), "Luz do Sol", "Desde que o samba ê samba" and many more.
The musical style of bossa nova and João Gilberto, one of its most prominent exponents, were major influences on Veloso's music as he grew up. Veloso was 17 years old when he first heard Gilberto, whom he describes as his "supreme master". He recognizes Gilberto's contribution for "illuminating" the tradition of Brazilian music and paving the way for future innovation
It will be a night to remember that will take you to the beaches of Bahia (where Caetano was born) and the gentle breeze of its numerous coconut trees.
