A Platform for Ethnically and Culturally Inspired Music
ABOUT
As a result of sound research with alternative materials such as trash and scraps, the "Vida Seca" (Dry Life) group was formed in 2004, reinterpreting Brazilian, African, and Latin American rhythms and also influenced by pop and experimental music.
The quartet, formed by Danilo Rosolem, Igor Zargov, Ricardo Roqueto, and Thiago Verano, composes music, produces instruments, and gives workshops through the project "Rhythmic Trash, Recycled Batuque," which has been developed since 2006. Through this experience, the group seeks to instigate people to understand our social and environmental reality, through an artistic and pedagogical discourse that questions and proposes actions.
They have a CD released in 2008, "Som de Sucata" (Scrap Sound), and a DVD with the same name released in 2012. The group has been presenting their shows and workshops in the Brazilian states of Goiás, Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, São Paulo, and the Federal District, and also performed two tours in Portugal, in 2009 and 2010.
