The rhythms of Dendê dig deep into the fertile 17th-century roots of Africa and Portuguese, with samba de roda — a Brazilian cultural tradition from Bahia mixing music, dance, and poetry performed in a circle (a roda). Check out the dynamic multi-talented musician — percussionist, singer, composer, bandleader, and educator — in concert. Dendê splits his time between the U.S. and Bahia, working with his own ensembles. He explores the international influences and nuances of rumba, afrobeat, and mbalax. In the last 20 years, Dendê & Band have performed worldwide. $20 to $25 per ticket. 7:30 p.m. EST, City Winery Philadelphia, 990 Filbert St. 267-479-7373 or https://citywinery.com/philadelphia/events/dende-and-band-99uqgy
