Sea Monster Lounge, 2202 N 45th St, Seattle, WA 98103, USA
Foleada is a group of seasoned musicians based out of Seattle that play Forró (“foh-hoh”), dance music from the Northeast region of Brazil. Forró draws on many musical styles, but two of the primary influences are Afro-Brazilian rhythms like samba and baião, and European melodies such as schottisches and polkas. A traditional Forró ensemble features accordion, triangle, and drums. Foleada is a sextet featuring two accordionists: Jamie Maschler and Gabe Hall-Rodrigues, two percussionists: Jeff Busch and Sam Esecson, Michael Catts on bass, and Brazilian vocalist Adriana Giordano. All our members are active in the Seattle music scene and are veteran performers.
Foleada pays homage to Forró’s Northeastern Brazilian historical roots to transport their audiences to the vibrant streets of Brazil while also adding their own Pacific Northwest flavor.
