Opened in 1982, Sounds of Brazil (SOB’s) has been the home of Brazilian music in NYC for over 40 years. Amongst the first to hit the stage were legends like Gilberto Gil, Astrud Gilberto, Ed Motta, and Marisa Monte, followed by contemporary icons like Tropkillaz. From monthly samba dance classes to late-night baile funk parties, SOB’s continues to be the go-to spot for all things Brazil in NYC. <3
