En Canto

"En Canto not only provides fun, engaging music, full of heart and energy, but are an absolute delight to work with. They struck just the right tone and energy for our 1,200 person gala, and we can't wait to work with them again!"
Rebecca Neff Brown - Northwest Immigrant Rights Project

​
"En Canto joins world and pop music together with a samba flare using woodwinds, percussion, and an accordion. This female-led seven-piece fills a room with sparkle and grace, combining all inspirations to create an energetic and eclectic sound. The celebration of Brazilian music will surely keep everyone on their feet, moving and grooving all down the streets of Seattle."
Priscilla Gamit - KXSU's Seattle University Radio

A multi-ethnic, female-led seven-piece, En Canto’s world pop music—a combination forró, samba, and choro-inspired originals and reimagined covers of classic Brazilian hits—commands attention and inspires movement. En Canto currently channels its fierce independence into challenging stereotypes while also helping audiences expand their comfort zones. “We make people dance”

We perform generally and most frequently as a 6 piece band but can pair down all the way to a trio.

"This delightful, animated septet’s first full-length album of the Brazilian Northeast’s accordion-woodwind-and-percussion-generated folk music sparkles with life."
