PAULO BRAGANÇA
Paulo Bragança is the fallen angel of Fado and as such the fadista par excellence. The Fado singer "pure and hard", the "Punk man of Fado"; the Man who barefoot is lost and found throughout the world. The Fadista who knows like nobody what sings and how he sings it.
In "spiritual and artistic exile" for more than a decade, he is returning to resume a path that is far from complete. In 1992 he released his first album and amazed Portugal. From the shock to the adoration was a climax and seminal "Amai" sees the light of day two years later, in 1994. It traverses the world, by the hand of David Byrne (Talking Heads / Luaka Bop) revolutionizing the Fado. It also publishes "Mistério do Fado" (1996) and "Lua Semi-Nua" (2001) and disappears.

On his return to Portugal, he signed a lunar collaboration with the Moonspell, in the theme "In Tremor Dei", of the new disc of the gothic Metal band, 1755, dedicated to the Lisbon Earthquake.

In 1983, his parents were forced to leave Angola, due to the political and social instability that the country was going through. They passed through Brazil, Canada, the United States of America until, finally, they arrived in Portugal. Under pressure from his parents, he attended the Law course, leaving it by the end of the third year: Music spoke louder. Encouraged by a college friend, he sang at the Aula Magna, as part of the academic week and, from there, began his journey through the Fado Houses in Lisbon.
Already established in the fado circuits of Lisbon, in 1992 he was invited to participate in the recording of an album by Jorge Fernando. That same day, he signed a contract with the label PolyGram and, two years later, released his first album, “Notas sobre a Alma”. In 199
