Ney Matogrosso, Brazil's most extravagant artist ever hits London with his fabulous  show featuring his old favourites, new hits and never sung before classics. 

A creative powerhouse for several decades, Ney Matogrosso is renowned for his flamboyance, stage theatrics, loud costumes and singular high-pitched voice.

With a setlist that flows across many styles and eras, from samba to rock, bolero to pop he performs new compositions and lost gems by Brazil's greatest songwriters. Always a conter-culture artist, openly gay and deeply committed to his art, Ney Matogrosso honours and reinvents them in his unique style. 

In this special show, Matogrosso will be singing some favourites from his many recordings alongside songs new to his live set. The show will also feature two classics that he performs for the first time: 'Como 2 e 2' (Caetano Veloso) and 'Feira Moderna' (Beto Guedes/Lô Borges/Fernando Brant).
