João Gomes will perform on the Sunset Stage at Rock in Rio on September 12th, preparing a historic show that brings together symbols of Pernambuco's popular culture. Among the most anticipated Brazilian attractions at the festival, the singer is beginning to reveal the scope of the cultural intervention he is preparing for the event.
Traditional names such as Galo da Madrugada, Embaixada dos Bonecos Gigantes, and Maracatu Piaba de Ouro have already been confirmed. The list, however, is far from complete and is expected to grow.
Now, another name that will be at the festival has been exclusively revealed: the Homem da Meia-Noite, one of the biggest symbols of Olinda's Carnival, will also be at Rock in Rio alongside João Gomes. Details about how this participation will work are still being kept secret.
More than just specific guest appearances, João Gomes seems to be preparing a true encounter of Brazilian popular culture within Rock in Rio, bringing together cultural manifestations from Pernambuco in a single event in Rio de Janeiro.
