Improvising at Casa de Linhares
The last year and a half have been passed producing my first record, “Tu que Eu Trago Nos Sentidos”, which I hope to have completed by year’s end.
After recording a few songs with Ricardo Verdelho (pianist from the TV show “Contacto” from SIC TV) I went after one the biggest producers/authors/singers/musicians in fado, Jorge Fernando.
Therefore, a few weeks ago I went to meet Jorge and discuss dates, and to schedule the beginning of our work together. As usual, everytime I go the restaurant where Jorge plays regularly, Bacalhau de Molho – Casa de Linhares (where we can also hear artists such as Ana Moura, or Raquel Tavares), I end up singing. And that’s how it all happened. When I started to sing the second of the three fados I sang that night, the traditional fado loucura (madness), with lyrics written by me, we started on the wrong key and ended up creating a whole new style, that I seriously doubt we’ll be able to reproduce (if only it had been recorded). From the melody to the lyrics there wasn’t a single phrase that matched what we had in mind, or had been written. If it wasn’t for the talent, and professionalism of the musicians that accompanied me it wouldn’t have been the success it was.

My Life and a Fado*
My Life and a Fado is about everyday stories told by Ms. Lavínia, a porter in Lisbon. Being for the first time in a casa de fado**, Ms. Lavínia is amazed by the several points in common she finds between fado* and life in general. So, she keeps interrupting the fado* singer (myself), to share her stories, the stories she knows from the building she Works at.
Though some of these stories might appear unbelievable at first glance, they are all true, and were all taken from newspapers and magazines from around the world.
Soon in a casa de fado** near you.
Fado: traditional music from Portugal
Casa de fado: restaurant where fado is played every night
