Tati Veras, founder and lead vocalist of Raiz do Sana, one of Brazil’s most important forró groups, brings her new show to London, a mix of Northeastern rhythms, contemporary energy and irresistible dance-floor spirit.

Founded in 1998 in Arraial do Sana, Raiz do Sana fuses xotes, xaxados, maracatus and baiões with rock, salsa, samba and soul. Over 25 years, the band has played more than 1,300 shows, released seven albums and toured Europe three times, with guests including Elba Ramalho, Geraldo Azevedo, Marcelo D2 and Carlos Malta.

In 2017, Tati launched her solo career, taking her music across Europe on four tours. In 2019, she became the first forró singer to perform in Siberia, and released the single “Barro”, featuring Seu Jorge.

Beyond the stage, she is a respected cultural producer, creating festivals such as Mistura Sana and Conexão Sana and leading executive production of cultural projects in Rio de Janeiro.

With a powerful voice and a deep commitment to Brazilian culture, Tati Veras invites London to dance, sing and feel the heart of forró.

She will be performing with Gabriel Serrano on sanfona and Sabatuk on percussion, two great musicians in their own right!
