With a repertoire based mainly on the songs of Diego Calasso, Sondilá Banda varies from a quartet to a team of 10 musicians on stage, depending on the venue, theater, festival...

The strong influences of Afro music, rhythms such as samba, Afro beat, ijexá, funk,... mix in order to create a unique sound.
The songs are danceable and communicate strong reflections on society, duality and the mysteries of life.
