Dear Dromers,
We
had an amazing festival of Brazilian rhythms this past weekend to
celebrate Brazil day and the end of summer. We would like to thank
everyone who joined us for Beleza and Tony Touch.
As summer passes into September, we are excited to announce an exciting series of events. Singer-songwriter Nellie McKay heads a charity event hosted by The List Project on September 11, in aid of displaced Iraqis. She will be joined by Laura Thomas, Amir El-Saffar and Ray Gerber in a unique charity event for the Iraqis.
This week, we continue the Brazilian celebrations a bit longer and host Dende and the Hahahaes with their infectious Afro-Brazilian rhythms.
Read on below for an outstanding week to kick off September.
