Deolinda

This quartet of young Portuguese musicians creates original songs and music from Portuguese tradition and pop music. There is no “Deolinda” in the band: she is a character who inspires their songs. “She writes her own songs by peeking through the curtains of her window, drawing inspiration from the old gramophone records that once belonged to her grandmother and by the bizarre and strange life of her neighbors.” Flamboyant, comic, sweet, melancholy: all of this is Deolinda.
