Background notes
Archive material and source history
Gaiteirios de Lisboa formed in the 1970s, drawing from folk traditions of the Alentejo region and the sounds of Lisbon's streets. Their early albums like 'Canções do Sul' and 'O Voo do Gaiteiro' mixed traditional Portuguese melodies with modern influences, anchored by members such as Pedro Caldeira Cabral on vocals and guitar, Teresa Salgueiro on vocals, and Carlos Guerreiro on accordion.
Their music often addressed social and political themes, with songs like 'Agora Que Eu Vou Cantar' reflecting this focus. The band's performances were known for their energy, though their outspoken lyrics sometimes sparked debate.
They recorded tracks such as 'Era não era do tamanho de um pardal', continuing to blend folk with elements from rock and jazz. The group's work in the late 1970s helped shape a distinct sound within Portuguese music of that period.
