Carminho is the great voice of fado and one of the Portuguese artists with the greatest international projection.
Carminho was born amidst the guitars and voices of fado, daughter of renowned fado singer Teresa Siqueira, she started singing in public at the age of twelve, at the Coliseu. Fado has always been so present that he never thought it could be his profession. During college, he sang in Fado houses, there were several proposals to record, but he decided to wait. He graduated in Marketing and Advertising and realized that singing required a maturity and a world that he didn't have yet.
For a year she traveled the world, participated in humanitarian missions and returned to Lisbon determined to give herself entirely to an artistic journey.
“Fado”, his first album, was released in 2009, which became one of the most acclaimed albums of the year and decade. Reaches platinum - enviable result for a debut - and sees "Fado" open the hearts of Portugal to his voice, and the doors of the world to his talent: best album of 2011 for the British magazine "Songlines", performances in the main European capitals , at Womex 2011 in Copenhagen and at the Parisian headquarters of UNESCO as part of Fado's candidacy for world heritage.
In the same year, she collaborated with Pablo Alborán in “Perdoname” and became the first Portuguese artist to reach number 1 in the Spanish top. In 2012, the second album, “ALMA”, debuted in the first place of sales in Portugal and reached prominent positions in several international charts. After passing through the main theaters in Europe and the world, in countries such as Finland, Sweden, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Colombia, China, India, Latvia, USA, Germany, United Kingdom, South Korea, Poland, France, Austria, Denmark, among many others, is also active in Brazil and fulfills the dream of recording with Milton Nascimento, Chico Buarque and Nana Caymmi, which results in a re-edition of “Alma” with three new songs. Carminho thus begins to conquer Brazil, with sold out concerts in Rio de Janeiro and all over the country.
In 2013, Carminho asserted herself as one of the most international Portuguese artists, taking her voice to the four corners of the world, while being distinguished in Portugal with a Golden Globe and the Carlos Paredes Award, seeing both of her albums achieve the double platinum brand.
At the end of 2014 he edited “Canto”, and his relationship with Brazil took on even deeper roots, with the first partnership between Caetano Veloso and his youngest son Tom, who offered him the unprecedented “O Sol, Eu e Tu”. “Canto” also includes the duet with Marisa Monte and guest appearances by Jaques Morelenbaum, António Serrano, Carlinhos Brown, Javier Limón, Naná Vasconcelos, Dadi Carvalho, Jorge Hélder and Lula Galvão.
In 2016, following an invitation addressed by the family of one of the greatest composers in the world, he recorded “Carminho canta Tom Jobim”, with the last band that accompanied him live in his last ten years, sharing themes with Marisa Monte, Chico Buarque and Maria Bethânia. “Carminho sings Tom Jobim” is now platinum and with this album Carminho is awarded the Golden Globe for best performer.
After the great success achieved with the album “Carminho Canta Jobim”, the Portuguese singer, considered one of the greatest performers in the history of our music, is back with a new album of originals.
“Maria” is the title that Carminho chose for her new album, the fifth of her career and the most personal ever. An album that signs the production and includes several songs of his own. A truly emotional record.
A constant dialogue, always in tune with respect for everything that Carminho learned directly from her fado roots, respecting the truth of words and traditional language, but at the same time with a free and contemporary look at the world that inspires her, reinterpreting a lot from what she learned from fado since she was a little girl.
Her entire career has revealed in Carminho an artist of firm and thoughtful decisions, who never forgets her origins, who carries within her a language of several centuries, but who is current in her generation, with her eyes on the world and in the future.
It was worth the wait.
