Introduction
Mirkka & Flores is a vibrant dance band that fills the heart of the dance hall with fire and light. The band plays traditional Brazilian forró songs and songs composed by the lead singer Mirkka Kivilehto.
The band's lineup consists of well-known musicians and its roots lie in the Finnish forró collective Banda Madrugada (later Mirkka & Madrugada), which started in the early 2000s. The lineup has gained fame both in Finland and elsewhere in Europe. It also has its own audience in Brazil.
Brazilian forró music resonates with everyone with something familiar and nostalgic about the past. In a way, as if you already knew it, but it is still something new and fresh. With its simplicity, forró invites everyone to dance in their own style. Forró is based on the connection between the musicians and the audience, where everyone has a place just as they are.
