Luísa Sobral

Luísa Sobral is one of the most important singer-songwriters of the new generation of Portuguese musicians. 
 
She debuted in 2011 with ‘The Cherry on My Cake’, which was followed by ‘There’s A Flower In My Bedroom’ (2013) - with guests like Jamie Cullum -  and ‘Luísa’ (2016) produced by Joe Henry (Madonna, Elvis Costello). ‘Rosa’, produced by Raul Refree (Rosalía, Rocío Márquez), arrived in 2018. Her songwriting facet stood out over these years, composing for many renowned portuguese artists. In 2017, Luísa wrote ‘Amar Pelos Dois’ which, interpreted by her brother Salvador Sobral, resulted in Portugal’s first victory in Eurovision.
 
In 2020, she expanded her creative horizons by releasing a single with Spanish singer Zahara, creating ‘O Avesso da Canção’, a podcast about the art of songwriting and, in the following year, revealing ‘Camomila’, mini-album of lullabies.
 
Besides being a beloved artist in Portugal, Luísa also has vast international experience. Since 2011, the year she performed on “Later…with Jools Holland” (BBC), Luísa has been touring all over the world and performing in iconic festivals like WOMAD in Adelaide (Australia), Barcelona Jazz Festival, London Jazz Festival, SXSW (Texas, USA), among many others.
 
11 years after her debut, Luísa has just released 'DanSando'. The new album was produced by Latin Grammy winner, Tó Brandileone, and presents a sunny aesthetic, with eleven songs written in Portuguese that explore daily life with intimacy and sweetness.
