Brazilian band playing the traditional SAMBA from Rio de Janeiro, with the sounds of native instruments headlines this irresistible festival. Join in what the

Brazilians call "backyard samba." Audience dancing on stage!

Fundo de Quintal is part of the culture of the samba, influencing all a generation of sambistas and is one of the respected groups in the world of the samba.
Emerged in the late 70’s from a Carnival group called Cacique de Ramos, in Rio de
Janeiro, the group Fundo de Quintal set a new milestone for the music style known as
pagode. With acclaimed samba singer Beth Carvalho as
their musical godmother, Fundo de Quintal became notorious for choosing unusual
instruments in samba jam sessions, such as the banjo and percussion gear. The group
has made several albums and won a handful of Gold and Platinum Records. Some of
Fundo de Quintal’s greatest hits are "E Eu Não Fui Convidado", "Boca sem Dente",
"Parabéns pra Você", "Andei, Andei", "Do Fundo do Nosso Quintal", "Só pra
Contrariar", "Miudinho", "Não Vai na Conversa Dela", "Sonhando Eu Sou Feliz",
"Malandro Sou Eu" and "Tô Que Tô".

Bring your picnic basket and join us for some more Brazilian entertainment at L.A.’s Oasis Under the Stars…and get ready to dance… celebrate with us 14 years of bringing the best Brazilian groups to Southern California!

“… It’s not often that a world music festival at the prestigious amphitheater turns into the kind of relaxed, infectious party you could find in the backyard of a Latin American home.”
