Background notes
Archive material and source history
Eskentasamba is a music collective from Salvador, Brazil, formed in the late 1990s. Led by vocalist and accordionist Daniel Mangabeira, the group blends traditional samba with Afro-Brazilian melodies. Their songs often touch on social issues like poverty and discrimination, drawing from their African roots.
Their debut album, "A Fila Andou," came out in 2002 and was a hit, with the title track becoming an anthem for marginalized communities. Other songs like "Guerreiro" and "Sobrenatural" reflect their mix of rhythm and message. They followed with albums such as "Ôlorum" in 2005 and "O Samba É Nosso" in 2010.
Core members include Daniel Mangabeira, Magary Lord on bass, Ramon Cruz on guitar, and Jota Moraes on drums. They've worked with artists like Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso. Their music has reached audiences at festivals worldwide, though they've faced some criticism for their outspoken lyrics.
