A story of love for Samba music and soulful intercultural rhythms.
The Brazilian Samba and brass ensemble "A Panda do Sol" started its musical journey in 2016. The band has been composing its own Sambas and blending them to the musical & cultural background of each musician, creating a unique language on a base of traditional Brazilian percussions.
"Panda" is a growing project which gathers today up to eight musicians from Brazil, France, Colombia, Germany & Spain, all living in Berlin, Germany.
The band's first album "Fôlego" portrays the beginning of their musical path and forecasts compositions about nature, love and death, in the image of the first Sambistas of the era, joining poetry and rhythm. It was released in September 2019.
Their new project "Homenagem" is a direct homage to some of these composers, the creators of the roots of Samba music. Recorded in Berlin in the winter of 2020, it will be released under the label of Sungroove records on the 27th of May 2022. |
