A sunny and flamboyant spirit, the Brazilian João Selva carries us away with his new wave album Onda - Underdog Records /2025. Navegar (“to sail”) in 2021, Passarinho (“little bird”) in 2023... through the titles of these last two albums, João Selva has displayed his ambitions and ideals: to fluidly and swiftly connect the musical components of a Black Atlantic that extends from Brazilian samba to Angolan Semba, from Cape Verdean funaná to Caribbean zouk, via Congolese rumba and American funk. His new album Onda continues to ride this same wave, crowning a luminous transatlantic artwork, imbued with sensuality and joie de vivre.
