Album "Pé de Serrita"
"São João Gomes" is an event dedicated to culture and forró. Transforming the place into a big June party, the singer presents the show of the album "Pé de Serrita", recorded in the city that gives the project its name, in the Sertão of Pernambuco, where the artist was born and where his grandmother's house is located.
With 16 songs distributed across 10 tracks, the album uses words in its title, alluding to the term "pé de serra", while at the same time mentioning the name of the city where the artist lived part of his childhood.
In its programming, the project usually invites other artists, as well as representatives of June culture, such as square dances. The party has already visited the cities of São Paulo, Fortaleza, Porto, in Portugal, and Salvador.
