222 East Concert Series: MoForro

MoForro plays triangle-driven, hip-swiveling dance music in the traditional, rootsy, “pé de serra” style of forró. A music that was born out of the countryside of the dry Northeast, forró is now one of the most popular rhythms to come from Brazil. Since forming in late 2012, MoForro–along with the Forró in L.A. collective–has been integral to the growing popularity of forró as a dance-music genre throughout Southern California.
