Three vocalists and a trio of musicians blend traditional Portuguese sounds with surf rock energy.
For their sound, start with 'Tu' or 'Caminhos.' They play live with a lot of energy, pulling from those different influences without sticking to one genre.
They're one of the few groups taking traditional Portuguese baía music and running it through rockabilly and surf rock filters. Songs like 'Tu' show how their three vocalists can wrap folk melodies around driving guitar lines. Some listeners question whether their approach waters down the tradition, but they've kept working with that mix for over a decade.
They formed in Lisbon in 2011 as a collective. Their debut album 'Lado Oposto' came out in 2013, followed by 'Noites de Lua Cheia' in 2015 and a live album recorded in Lisbon in 2017. Songs like 'Caminhos' and 'Trem' document their blend of folk melodies with rock energy.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
