  Biribá Union

  Experience the intoxicating sounds of Biribá Union. Borrowing its name from a Brazilian wild sugar-apple, the group came together through Silkroad’s Global Musician Workshop and quickly bonded over their shared love of music from Brazil. Their sound is a thrilling blend of the freestyle theatrics of Hip-Hop and Go-go music, the effortless beauty of Brazilian Forró and Choro, the earthiness of American Roots music, and the improvisational spontaneity of jazz.
