This Saturday (25), the Cape Verdean DJ Afrotales will make an unprecedented presentation in Florianópolis. As a closure of the project "Intercultural Encounters: from the island of Cape Verde to Ilha da Magia", the artist will play a setlist composed of songs from the “Afrohouse” genre. Scheduled at 20pm, the show will be at Haôma Lower Center, located on Avenida Hercílio Luz, in the center of the capital of Santa Catarina. The event will have free entry.

According to DJ Afrotalles himself, this Saturday's show promises vibrant energy, with a mix of electronic rhythms and African influences.

But the event's attractions start in the afternoon. From 17pm onwards, Barbara Trelha will present a different approach to the work of Pernambuco singer Lenine.
