Reveillon (New Year’s Eve)

 

Reveillon

New Year’s Eve in Salvador da Bahia, Brazil is a festive and relaxed environment. Thousands of Bahians dress in white with their champagne bottles ready to commemorate the New Year. To secure blessings for the new year, roses are presented to Yemanjá, the orixá of the sea, while some also have a midnight sea bath. At the Barra Lighthouse (Farol da Barra), people enjoy Brazilian pop music concerts until sunrise.

Our music has its roots in Salvador in Bahia, and is filled with a big dose of brazilian samba...last year some of us were lucky enough to visit our home of inspiration and play with @batala_brasilia, alongside our Batala friends from across the world. It was such an amazing experience...truly unforgettable! #OneLoveOneDrum ❤️🥁
