The Rock in Rio organization has announced four new names of national artists in its 2024 edition. The announcement highlights the participation of Ivete Sangalo, who will sing at the festival for the 18th time.
In addition to participating in 5 editions of the national event, he also sang in all the countries where Rock in Rio was held, including 9 performances in Lisbon, 2 in Madrid and 1 in Las Vegas. In her last participation in Rock in Rio Lisboa, last year, she even called herself “Garota Rock in Rio”.
Paralamas do Sucesso also return to Rock in Rio. They were beginners when they first performed at the event in 1985, when Rock in Rio emerged as a cornerstone for the new generation of Brazilian rock. They subsequently performed a few more times, playing with Titãs in 2011 and most recently in 2019.
Along with Ivete and Paralamas, Jão and Gloria Groove, from The Town’s share of Rock in Rio 2024, have also been confirmed.
