Hoobaaa!!!
This September we're holding onto Summer with a visit from the fabulous Portuguese singer Suéli Gil for a gorgeous trip around the world of Lusophone music with southern hemisphere sounds of Semba from Suéli's ancestral country Angola and the lush rhythms of the Tropicália movement of Bahia Brasil.

Suéli' cites artists Djavan, Gilberto Gil, Elis Regina, Gal Costa and Paulo Flores as major musical influences.
Guaranteed to bring joy and warmth to a late September evening, join us for a magical evening!

'My taste for Bossa Nova though comes from my heart. I don't recall being educated in this particular musical style or perhaps I watched to many 'Globo Novelas'!
What I do remember though, was dancing the Merengue, the Semba and Samba in festivities that we enjoy in Portugal. On quiet Sunday afternoons, we used to enjoy Sertaneja Music around the table. So I would describe myself as a fusion between Brasilian Carnival, Angolan Semba and the chilled out Bossa Nova!
I love being surrounded by people as well as a lonely walk in nature where I am transported to my "imagination world" and only I have the key to get in. Being brought up by the sea and blessed with the hot Portimão Sun and Summer, which has so much influenced my writing and music – The songs of my heart'.
