Mestre Hugo + Afon Sistema All Stars at The Canteen

A gig held at The Canteen on Saturday 5th October. The event starts at 21:30.


For the fifth year running, we are lucky to be joined by Mestre Hugo Leonardo from Maracatu Nação Leão da Campina, direct from Recife, Brazil. Expect Hugo's signature vocals, inspired by his experience as a Master of Maracatu and his life inside the Brazilian traditions of Candomble & Jurema. For those who don't know, Maracatu is a carnival rhythm and dance heard in the Brazilian city of Recife, home of the world's largest Carnival!

Providing the rhythms will be drummers from Bristol based Maracatuzeiros; Afon Sistema.

Expect a hot and sweaty evening with Maracatu & Samba de Coco vibes inside the Canteen! This is a night for the serious dancers amongst you! Don't miss this rare opportunity to see a true master of Brazilian carnival in action!

Get yourselves down early cus this is going to get rammed....bring your best dance moves and lots of energy, at the last Canteen show, Hugo had to be physically removed from the stage by security as he was just not ready to finish!!!!
