    This is a fresh and lively album, composed and dedicated to Lisbon, the city where the musicians met: Joana Reais the singer, Múcio Sá the composer and guitar player, Miguel Menezes the doublebass player and André Mota the drummer. We recorded it in Lisbon-Portugal and remastered it in Porto Alegre-Brazil.

    With original worldmusic tunes and a jazzy version of a popular fado song, it has illustrations by Carolina Maria, design by Mariana Veloso and the photography is from Vera Marmelo. The big bonus is the booklet with beautiful photographs and the lyrics of all songs, so you can sing with us!

about

Eugénio de Andrade's poem "Gatos" (Cats) is here interpreted by Joana Reais in voice and metallophone.

GATOS
music by Carlos Garcia, lyrics by Eugénio de Andrade

Gatos dos quintais
Gatos dos portões

Gatos das ruínas

Gatos e gatos e gatos
Arre, que já estamos fartos!
