Yarákä is a project born in 2015 and with the debut album “Invocaçao” is preparing for the first tour abroad which next May will see them starring in four concerts between Austria and Germany. Yarákä proposes a path mainly rooted in the Afro-Brazilian and South American tradition, a research born to highlight the multi-ethnic component, in particular the common rhythmic matrix coming from Africa that acts as a catalyst and allows to go over experimenting contaminations with Mediterranean and Southern Italy sounds.

The relationship between man and nature can be sought in the relationship between man and God. Popular cultures are united by an anchestral relation: man in contact with nature and the music becomes the medium. The song that opens the album “Maletiembe“ for example is an invocation to Saint John for fields protection against bad weather, an ancient tradition rediscovered through the stories of their elderly; starting from own land finding the common elements in different areas of the south of the world, was the starting point of the disc: “Invocaçao wants to be the beginning of a real journey, a research that digs in the origins to look for a junction between cultures and primordial ethnic groups”.

From 22 to 25 May 2019 the Yarákä will be on tour in Austria and Germany to present their Invocaçao album with a special trio formation composed by Virginia Pavone on vocals, Gianni Sciambarruto on guitar and berimbau and Antonio Oliveti on ethnic percussion.

The Apulian band will perform on Wednesday 22nd at the Cultur Cafè Smaragd in Linz (Austria) , Thursday 23rd at the Reigen Live in Wien (Austria) , on Friday 24th at the Oberstübchen in Regen (Germany) , Saturday 25th at the Glockenbachwerkstatt in Munich (Germany). The foreign tour is organized by the Booking Management agency Zero Nove Nove ( www.zeronovenove.com ).
