Lívia Mattos at G!

All the way from Brazil comes Lívia Mattos—and you'd be hard-pressed to find a more charismatic and colorful performer.

Is that all? Far from it. She masters the accordion like no other, moving her arms right and left as if they were wings with no resistance. True masters break the rules, and Lívia does just that—merging genres and sounds while pushing the boundaries of what an accordion can do.

Joining her on stage are Jefferson Babu on tuba and Rafael dos Santos on drums and percussion.

Come and feel the energy and joy as Brazilian samba in a completely new form hits G! Festival, happening July 17–19, 2025.

You have to be there!
