Native Brazilian percussionist, singer, and composer Xande Cruz emerges with a new sound.
His diverse combination of rhythms, inspired by his Afrobrazilian roots, mixes percussion, electronics and fuses horns, vocals, and guitars.
A descendant of an indigenous Brazilian father and a Bahian mother, Xande was born and raised in the largest city in South America, Sao Paulo. Being a percussionist, he approaches his sound from a rhythmic view and from there creates memorable harmonies woven into the fabric of his art and his identity.
Cruz's lyrics inspired by experiences of love, social inequality, and cultural peculiarities of Brazil and the US; his music is fed by a pure and constant passion for his art, his homeland, and the light at the beginning of the tunnel.
Recently, Xande relocated to Philadelphia to continue his recording project, Luz.
The live show can be seen locally and regionally. The energy and power exchanged between the musicians and the audience is electrifying.
Xande moves between percussion and vocals, both melodic and rap-like, with such energy and effortlessness. His presence is hypnotic and you can't stop moving with him. Mixing his original music with traditional Afro-Brazilian songs and even some Bob Marley tunes, the live show takes the art of the studio project to an even greater level.
