Mariwô blends Juan Megna’s original compositions with elements of Brazilian Candomblé's rhythms and chants, as well as the folk traditions of Argentina. The project creates a vibrant, contemporary sound that bridges Afro-Brazilian styles and South American roots into a unique, expressive musical experience.
Juan Megna is an accomplished Argentinian percussionist, drummer, and bandleader renowned for his vibrant performances and deep-rooted passion for music.

In 2017, he relocated to the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, where his vibrant drumming and innovative compositions quickly garnered attention. He has since performed with celebrated jazz artists including Wade Beach, Shawn Purcell, and Tedd Baker, solidifying his reputation in the jazz community.
Juan leads The Juan Megna Group, a dynamic ensemble that fuses original compositions with a rich tapestry of jazz, Argentinian, and Afro-Brazilian rhythms, creating an engaging musical experience. His debut album, "Mariwô," has garnered widespread acclaim from both the press and fellow musicians.
