Tonight, Friday 25 September 2026, the jazz room on Avenida Paulista runs two sets of one of Brazil’s better-known tribute projects. All times below are São Paulo time, four hours behind London.
What’s On Tonight
Blue Note São Paulo hosts Amy Reggaehouse tonight, in two separate sets. The club’s ticketing page gives the house opening at 7 p.m., with shows at 8 p.m. and 10.30 p.m.
The project was founded in Salvador and is led by the singer, composer and multi-instrumentalist Clariana. It rebuilds Amy Winehouse songs in reggae arrangements, with soul, jazz and Brazilian elements.
Dated São Paulo listings name “Rehab”, “Back to Black” and “Valerie” among the songs. They also report that the project was voted best tribute in the world at The Winehouse Awards in 2020.
The club flagged tonight as down to its last tickets when we checked on 25 September. That is a status rather than a guarantee, and it can move during the day.
Prices do not appear on the club’s programme index. Each show has its own page with the figure, so take it from there.
The show is rated 18 under Brazilian law. Minors are admitted only when accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
Two Official Pages, Two Box-Office Times
The club publishes its second-floor box-office hours as 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. on show days, from Wednesday to Saturday. Its ticketing partner publishes the same desk as opening at 6 p.m.
Both are official channels, and neither carries a correction. We report both rather than choose between them.
Both give the ground-floor desk as 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday to Saturday. The seller adds that the official box office charges no service fee.
The practical answer tonight is to buy online anyway. With a last-tickets flag on both sets, the desk is the wrong place to start.
Salvador Comes to Paulista
Tonight’s project belongs to Salvador rather than São Paulo. That city, the capital of Bahia, is a leading centre of Brazil’s Afro-Brazilian musical traditions.
A reggae reading of a British soul singer is less unlikely there than it sounds. Salvador has absorbed Caribbean rhythms for decades, and reggae has a long local history.
São Paulo is where those projects tour rather than where they start. The city’s rooms give national visibility to acts built elsewhere.
This week shows that pattern clearly. The programme ran from a Miles Davis album on Tuesday to a Gal Costa songbook on Thursday, before tonight’s Salvador-built tribute.
The Rest of the Weekend
Saturday brings Demônios da Garoa with “Clássicos & Bossas”, in two sets. That night also carries a last-tickets label.
The club also runs two daytime buffet sessions with live music. Saturday brings a feijoada from midday, and Sunday a brunch from 10 a.m.; the food is paid.
Sunday evening is a single early show at 7 p.m., Frã Finamore’s “Baile do Síndico”, a Tim Maia birthday tribute. There is no show on Monday.
Also Tonight Across the City
Maglore, a band formed in Salvador in 2009, brings its new album “Fluxo Natural” to Cine Joia in the centre from 8 p.m. Tickets cost R$160 (about US$31), or R$80 (about US$15.50) at the half price, g1 reported.
Tasha & Tracie play Audio in Barra Funda, where the house opens at 10 p.m. The show is rated 18, and tickets start at R$70 (about US$13.50).
What We Could Not Confirm
We cannot quote tonight’s Blue Note prices, because the club publishes none on its index. Take the figure from each show’s own page.
Canto da Ema in Pinheiros is a hall for forró, the couples dance from Brazil’s northeast. It publishes a Friday opening at 10 p.m., but we did not confirm tonight’s band.
Its online agenda shows no dated show this week. Ring (11) 2503-2915 before crossing the city for it.
Where to Go
Blue Note São Paulo — Paulista
The São Paulo branch of the New York jazz club, open since February 2019. It fills about 800 square metres on the second floor of the Conjunto Nacional.
- TonightAmy Reggaehouse with Clariana, at 8 p.m. and 10.30 p.m.
- StatusLast tickets, as flagged by the club on 25 September.

Money and How Paying Works
We convert at R$5.1795 to one US dollar, the Banco Central PTAX closing sell rate for Thursday 24 September. For Blue Note, take each figure from the club’s own show page when you buy.
The ticket seller says its official box office charges no service fee. Brazilian law also grants a half-price ticket, called meia-entrada, to students and several other groups.
Restaurants usually add a service charge of about 10 per cent, called serviço. It is not compulsory, and staff remove it if you ask.
What This Means for Your Evening
Buy before you travel tonight rather than trying the door. Both sets carry a last-tickets flag, and the door will not help once they go.
If both are gone, Maglore at Cine Joia keeps the Salvador theme tonight. The club’s own daytime buffets with live music follow tomorrow and on Sunday.
Tables go by arrival order rather than by booking. Arriving when the house opens is the way to sit close to the stage.
Getting Home Safe
The 8 p.m. set finishes inside normal metro hours. The 10.30 p.m. set may not, so plan a car if you take the later one.
Check the last train for your own line on the Metrô or ViaQuatro sites; Consolação closes at about 12.20 a.m. The overnight pilot covers Saturday night only, on Metrô lines 1, 2, 3 and 15.
Avenida Paulista stays busy and well lit into the night. Wait for a rideshare on the avenue rather than on a side street.
The weekend continues tomorrow, and the club then rests on Monday.
