Additional Information

The colorful sound of Brazil fills Royce Hall, featuring headliner Bebel Gilberto’s trademark electronic Bossa Nova, which took over clubs around the world and cemented Bebel as one of the top-selling Brazilian artists in the United States since her 2000 release Tanto Tempo.

Forro in the Dark is the collective of four New York-based Brazilian ex-pats—Mauro Refosco (zabumba drum and vocals) Davi Vieira (percussion and vocals) Guilherme Monteiro (guitar and vocals)and Jorge Continentino (piano flute, sax and vocals), who are brilliantly updating a traditional sound for the 21st century.

Join us for a Carmageddon Tailgate Party before the show starts!  Beat the 405 freeway closure at 7:00 and come to a free jam session on the Royce Terrace with L.A.'s own Son of the Drum. Drummer Richard Marquez mixes folkloric rhythms with urban beats in an Afro-Cuban rumba workshop where the audience is invited to participate. 6pm-8pm, happy hour discounts on food and drink for Bruin card holders.
