THE spirit of the samba will be coming back to Malvern this month as the town welcomes the return of a Brazilian night.

The event - at Club Nine in the town's Spring Lane South - is the brainchild of student Barnaby Simons, who grew up in nearby Birtsmorton and has been DJing for more than four years.

It takes place on Saturday, April 30, between 9.30am and 2am and the DJ will be serving up a heady mix of funk, samba, hip-hop, mambo, house, salsa, nu-jazz and soul, among other styles, to get people in to the Latin spirit.
