Só Samba has been shaking Wellington and the NZ public for 5 years (in a good way!) and you are invited to celebrate such an important milestone with the band & friends in their regular spot Havana Bar.
2016 also marks 100 years of samba, when the first samba song Pelo Telefone was recorded. There are celebrations all over Brazil and why not bring them to Wellington to finish 2016 on a high after so many awesome gigs and great times.
We would like to acknowledge former members Adilson Galdino, Juliano Souza, Alexander Rodrigo Franco, Christopher Brendan Mulholland, Jogo Friere, Carlos Espinoza and Matthew Gardner.
And all the special guests we’ve had along the way. Thanks for helping to create many unforgettable nights!
