COMPILATION

A former member of the Portuguese group Raizes do Fado, vocalist Francisco Fialho possesses all the dramatic and nuanced flair necessary for this passionate acoustic folk style. Joined by Antonio Carvalho and Alfredo Pena on guitars, Fialho sings his heart out, and his style so authentically mimics the classic Fado singers that it’s difficult to distinguish this 2008 album from an old Artur Paredes record.
