DESCRIPTION
Following her sold-out show at La Linea in April, Ana Moura returns to London in September.
She is without doubt Portugal’s favourite fado singer of the moment, bringing a rare talent to the Portuguese blues. Ana’s stunning new album simply titled ‘Moura’ follows on from her previous release Desfado which spent three years at the top of the charts in Portugal and went quintuple platininum.
Ana continues to develop a new fado for the twenty first century working with a new generation of young Portuguese musicians and songwriters whilst still having remained open to the wider musical world in collaborations with The Rolling Stones, Prince, Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil and Herbie Hancock.
‘Sublime.’ The Times
‘Magical.’ The Independent
‘An intensity and quiet emotion that should make her a major global star.’ The Guardian
