Da Cruz is an explosive fusion of bossa nova, Afrobeat, and electronic club aesthetics. Founded in Lisbon in 2005, they now make their home between Zurich and the Portuguese capital. Their music blends warm, soulful vocals with driving breakbeats, hypnotic loops, and a dense, often dark atmosphere. At times light and playful, at times heavy and uncompromising. Da Cruz moves beyond folkloric clichés and brings a new form of urban world music to the stage.
Live, the band unleashes a captivating energy: what begins as a concert quickly develops into an intense, cross-genre journey through soundscapes: powerful, surprising, and always in tune with the times. Whether at international festivals or in clubs, Da Cruz creates a captivating connection between cultural diversity and the electronic present.
