Unshakeable faith in samba
If there is anyone in whose presence you can feel welcome to believe in the good of this world, it is Brazilian artist Karla Da Silva. As the uncrowned queen of contemporary samba, she is the kind of performer who can make even the stiffest Dutch hips loosen up with joy. Comfortably barefoot and wearing a broad smile, Karla Da Silva sings from the heart fully into the light. Her music is an invitation to dance across the bridge between Afro-Brazilian musical heritage and the powerful woman she has become throughout her career. Karla Da Silva brings samba together with the sounds of the African diaspora, creating a uniquely warm and vibrant sound. She is a singer, songwriter and Yalorixá. As a priestess in the tradition of the Orixás of Candomblé, Karla Da Silva effortlessly brings spirituality and musicality together in a performance that embraces you like the soft yet powerful arms of an extraordinary mother.
