Established in Lyon, in 2008, Forro Rebeca is a French Brazilian musical project that links Brazilian culture and its legendary metissage with the rest of the world. The group is part of this musicians generation who draw on living traditions to emerge as a strong personal style.
At the heart of their music, the exciting rhythmic of Brazil northeast served by a stateless and indomitable accordion. A set enhanced by the presence of original sounds taken from traditional instruments such as berimbau, viola or rabeca. An equation that added to two boosted singers results in a joyful spectacle capable of igniting the most diverse audiences.
Transposing the rural atmosphere of Brazilian dances into the cosmopolitan universe of European capitals, the group is quickly noticed for its charisma on stage. More than 200 concerts will follow in France, but also in Germany, in Switzerland and in the Netherlands.
The group has enlarged its horizons collaborating with various artists.Their latest release "NA RODA" in 2013, featured some distinguished guests such as Sir Jean, singer of Peuple de l'Herbe, or the indefatigable globetrotter DJ TUDO.
A new album will follow in early 2016, produced by Jarring Effects Label under the careful eye of Tropical Bass master Maga Bo.
