Saraka | Live Music | Fábrica Braço de Prata (Silver Arm Factory)

Saraka are a colorful group of musicians and multi-instrumentalists from the German, French and Italian parts of Switzerland and sing in Portuguese or Spanish. They have committed themselves to the Latin American grooves that go from Son to Cumbia, but they go even further: they draw with them grooves from the African continent and with it a "fun" song. That's what they like, and that's how they think music should be, a way to make people happy, dance and jump late into the night.

That's how it's going to be on November 2nd at 00:00, room Michel Foucault, full of happy faces until the moon sets.

Local:Rua da Fábrica de Material de Guerra, 1

In this event your fight and your music will be honored in...
