Thursday 3rd - Sarava Soul Live

 sva.jpg

Exploding out of the rich cultural mix in the melting-pot of London’s underground music scene, comes the exciting and original sound of SARAVAH SOUL. This half-brazilian, half-british outfit has drawn upon unashamedly old-school flavours to create a new genre of RAW AFRO-BRAZILIAN FUNK!

Fronted by fiery break dancer Otto Nascarella, the intensity of their live shows has earned them a reputation for wild performances and a rapidly expanding fan base
