We have the top three picks for this Sunday, and below there is a list of bars and lounges that are always a good option.
PARTY:
DNA Social Club @ Barzin Rio (Ipanema) – DNA Social Club is the new club for Sundays at Barzin. The weekend doesn’t end until this event does.
From 9PM onwards their second floor lounge will open up where you can enjoy a great drink while listening to some deep house to get you into the mood for the evening.
Then from 11PM onwards, the party will continue to the third floor, a totally covered and air conditioned environment, where DJs will be spinning the best tunes until dawn.
Playing on the second floor this Sunday will be DJ Linnê and DJ Mv.
On the third floor will be DJ Afonso Feijó, who’s playing a special ‘birthday boy’ set, followed by DJ Rogério Mussel and DJ Léo Monteiro.
Entrance is between R$20-R$40.
LIVE:
A música de Charlie Parker @ Audio Rebel (Botafogo) – The music of Charlie Parker with different rhythms and interpretations is the theme of this special night of high-intensity jazz.
Fernando Trocado will be on the sax, Marcelo Magalhães Pinto is on the keyboard and they will be backed up by the rhythm combo of Zé Luiz Maia on the double bass and Roberto Rutigliano on drums.
Expect special guests and a whole host of quality jazz musicians for this celebration of Bird. And as they always said, “If Charlie Parker Was a Gunslinger, There’d Be a Whole Lot of Dead Copycats”
Tickets are R$30 and the night starts at 8PM.
