(member of another samba band at the Truro Mayday Gras Festival of Samba 2009)
Streetheat is a high energy samba ‘bateria’ (percussion group) that combines a danceable,
driving, beat with movement, and flamboyant costume, to make our own version of Brazilian samba.
The many complex, interweaving, rhythms of the various instruments appeal
to people of all ages.
We are as welcome playing to schools, village fetes, carnival processions and commercial launches,
as we are at nightclubs and music festivals … and we need no amplification so we are a ‘go anywhere’ band!
We are known throughout the South west and held
in high regard even by other samba bands.
