Forrozin invites: Arrumadinho Forró Roots (Melbourne+Brisbane) band alongside 'Trio Sanfona Sentida’ for a special Festa Julina edition Forró session. 'Arrumadinho Forró Roots’ is ensemble collaboration between members from 4 cities across Brazil & Australia - Rio De Janeiro, São Paulo, Brisbane & Melbourne. At it’s core the ‘arrumadinho’ is a trio (with VA guests including cavaqo, violin, flute, trombone), & lead by dynamic, energetic front man/singer/trianguleiro LeoRio, with sanfoneiro/accordionist Ricardo Bona & zabumbeiro/percussionist Paprika.
They come together & blend, celebrating roots styles (old & new) & take inspiration from groups such as Trio Bastião, Trio Dona Zefa, Jackson do Pandeiro, Trio Nordestino, Mestre Zinho (picanha do forró!). They’ve guested at forrozeiro events around Australia, headlined 2022 Melbourne Forró Marathon + 2023 Melbourne ForrOz Festival, and performed at the 2023 Agnes Water Forró Festival.
