Paulo Bragança, nicknamed the Punk fadista, spent more than a decade in artistic exile, but is back to continue a journey that is far from over. He recorded his first album in 1992 and on his return to Portugal he has already collaborated with Moonspell on the song In Tremor Dei from the album 1755, which is dedicated to the Lisbon Earthquake. This year he has also released the EP Cativo under his own name, a first taste of his forthcoming album Exílio, which he is working on alongside producer Carlos Maria Trindade.
