Dance the night away! We're giving the party a little taste of Brazil and South America with a Samba Band. With some Samba music jamming at your party it'll feel like you're in Rio during Carnival. This upbeat music will have your guests swaying and grooving out on the dance floor. Speaking of dancing, go ahead and book some Samba Dancers (and their large feather headpieces) to really set the theme of the evening. Get ready to party it up Brazilian style by booking one of these great Samba Bands.
When the Samba's close musical cousin, the Bossa Nova, grew to popularity in the late 50s and early 60s, the Samba grew up with it. Many samba groups and bossa nova bands have found their way into the standard jazz repertoire, and it is very common to see jazz bands and combos performing Samba music. Hire a Samba Band to bring an upbeat party atmosphere to any event, from wedding receptions to corporate events, wherever dance beats and infectious rhythms are needed!
Some things to consider when hiring a Samba Band are to make sure you listen to audio and watch video clips. This will ensure that you truly do book the best for your next event! Next, you want to get references. Talk to people in the area about the band and get feedback. Finally, get a contract. Many professional Samba Bands require a deposit to secure them at your next event. Make sure to read through the contract carefully before contracting the band for your party.
