Samba-rock

Samba-rock is a vibrant and eclectic genre that arose in Brazil, fusing the traditional rhythms of samba with the more contemporary and global influences of rock, funk, and soul music. Characterized by its upbeat tempo and the seamless blending of electric guitar riffs with traditional Brazilian percussion, samba-rock creates an infectious and danceable sound that has captivated audiences both within and beyond Brazil's borders. The genre owes its rich diversity and vitality to artists like Jorge Ben Jor, whose innovative compositions laid the groundwork for future musicians to explore and expand the genre. Bands and artists within samba-rock often incorporate elements of jazz, reggae, and even hip-hop, making it a dynamic and evolving genre that celebrates both the heritage of Brazilian music and the global influences that have shaped its development.
