Beyond Lisbon

Music for your ears

Although most of this clip was filmed in Lisbon all the games and sports being played reflect more or less traditional aspects of Portuguese life – which is why I chose it for today’s post.

The band, called Deolinda, have a very unique sound, mixing old and new. If you know fado, it may sound something like it – but it isn’t fado! They’re one of the most successful Portuguese bands right now and this song comes from their album “Dois Selos e Um Carimbo”. Trivia tidbit of the day: The singer, Ana Bacalhau, and I went to the same university. It’s a small world!
