About
Forró das Comadres is a Brazilian cultural project created by singer Silvinha to promote forró beyond Brazil’s borders. Inspired by the rhythms and dances of the Northeast, it showcases the living tradition of forró, carried by the iconic trio of accordion, zabumba, and triangle. With Forró das Comadres, the energy of the people blends with the spirit of regional festivals to create unforgettable moments. The project’s name pays homage to João Silva’s song “Forró das Comadres,” a symbol of feminine strength and the identity of the Northeast. True to this spirit, it places women at the heart of its artistic vision. For its first edition, Silvinha invited singer and multi-instrumentalist Lara Klaus as well as singer Julia Pessoa, both from Pernambuco, helping to showcase the culture of the Northeast through their voices and their energy on stage.
