Welcome

The sizzling samba rhythms of Brazilian-inspired street-music are alive and well - in Leicester! Sambando is Leicester's community samba band and for 25 years we've been sharing this potent, high-energy, percussion-driven music far and wide. Our samba-inspired street percussion brings Latin energy and vibrancy to club-nights, processions, festivals and celebrations. And while we're based in Leicestershire we perform around the UK. Check out the short video below to see us in action and then use this site to enquire about booking us, joining us, or even arranging a percussion workshop. Links to our social channels are at the top of the page.
