AfroReggae is the band from Rio de Janeiro that is part of the cultural organisation of the same name working for social change within the favela communities. The organisation has achieved phenomenal success in the last 13 years, using music and cultural programmes to change the lives of thousands of people in the areas hardest hit by drug-traffiking, violence and poverty. The band and the foundation have won huge acclaim in Brazil and beyond.

AfroReggae is the band from Rio de Janeiro that is part of the cultural organisation of the same name working for social change within the favela communities. The organisation has achieved phenomenal success in the last 13 years, using music and cultural programmes to change the lives of thousands of people in the areas hardest hit by drug-traffiking, violence and poverty. The band and the foundation have won huge acclaim in Brazil and beyond.

They are championed in Brazil by their musical ‘godfathers’ Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil and actress Regina Casé. AfroReggae have since become a professional band and this culminated in a contract with Universal Music for the production of the Nova Cara album in Brazil. It is important to say that this was the first time in Brazil where a band resulting from a social project was able to produce its first album with a major recording label.
