NORWOOD -- The Norwood Village Green Concert Series presents LADAMA, the second concert in its world music cluster on Sunday, July 14 at 7 p.m.

LADAMA is a group of four women -- Lara Klaus, Daniela Serna, Mafer Bandola and Sara Lucas — each from a different country and culture of the Americas.

Harnessing music from their respective countries of origin - Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela and the United States, the group uses traditional and non-traditional instruments from across the Americas, to make Latin Alternative music.

“LADAMA’s new self-titled album transcends space, time and borders. Hatched across continents and language by the members of the group themselves, it delivers a fresh take on a myriad of traditional, Pan-American rhythms all coming together seamlessly into LADAMA’s unique blend of enthralling sounds,” a press release from NVG said. “Reimagining South American and Caribbean styles like cumbia, maracatu, onda nueva and joropo and blending them with soul, R&B and pop, LADAMA creates a new sound all their own. Together, the four shred on the Bandola Llanera from Venezuela, the Tambor Alegre from Colombia, and the Pandeiro from Northeastern Brazil.”

The Sweetgrass Foundation supports the acoustic concerts including LADAMA. The series is supported in part by the New York State Council on the Arts.
