Portuguese Fado star Carminho is set to release her much anticipated new studio album Portuguesa on March 3rd, and has announced a UK concert, her first in over six years, at Union Chapel in London on May 12th.
Despite still being only 38, Carminho is already widely considered as one of the all time great Fado singers; an artist whose eclectic work has roots in both traditional and contemporary fado. The self-produced Portuguesa is Carminho’s sixth album and follows 2021’s acclaimed Maria, which achieved Platinum status in Portugal and cemented her reputation as one of the world’s leading proponents of traditional Fado.
Carminho has performed at some of the most prestigious venues, from the Barbican Centre in London to Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg and the Konzerthaus in Vienna, and this year’s international tour will visit over twenty five countries, providing music fans around the globe with the opportunity to witness one of Portuguese music’s most unique talents.
