Xocô
Sergio Xocolate is a capoeira Master, recording artist, singer-songwriter, award-winning composer, percussionist, artist-educator, social outreach facilitator and artistic ambassador of traditional Indigenous & Afro Brazilian cultural arts.
Revelling in an expansive career; his main focus, Xocô (formerly ‘Sérgio Xocolate Casa de Marimbondos’) is an Indigenous and Afro Brazilian psychedelic punk rock band that he conceived in his hometown of Recife, Pernambuco, Brasil but was actually born and realized in his new home of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Xocô features a diverse group of multidisciplinary artists: Felipe Sena, Shane Miersch, Andrie Ownly, Ana Maria Higuera and Suzanne Roberts Smith.
With a penchant for composing songs on the streetcar, Xocolate composed the forthcoming album merging his poetry, politics, and spirituality while paying tribute to his Afro and Indigenous ancestors from the XUKURU Nation, by breathing new lyrical life into traditional rhythms. The band’s recently released first single with video by Ana Maria Higuera ZUMBI DO BESOURO has been critically well received in Canada, Brazil and around the world
