Summary:
Dende Macedo is a percussionist, singer, composer, bandleader, teacher, and multi-instrumentalist. He's been a professional musician since the age of 14, when he appeared in the frontline of Timbalada, Carlinhos Brown's superstar percussion ensemble. Since 2001, he's been developing his solo career, splitting his time between the US and Bahia and working with his folkloric group Ologunde and his flagship band Dende & Band. Now on their second album, Dende & Band have cultivated a unique sound where Afro-Brazilian traditions like samba de roda and candomble have been seamlessly melded with world rhythms like rumba, afrobeat, and mbalax.
