About the event
THEY ARE BACK FOR ANOTHER SOLD OUT SHOW!
Inscribed by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, Fado is best known as the urban popular song of Lisbon, Portugal. But, like any art form, it has varied influences and it continues to evolve.
Raízes e Ramos (Roots and Branches) was formed in Toronto in 2011 with the desire to bring this rich genre of music to a wider audience.
Join vocalist, Jessica Lloyd, and guitarist and vocalist, Louis Simão, as they take you on a journey through the ages and landscapes that together weave the musical threads of Fado. With the combined forces of these two musicians, you will experience the roots of the traditional sounds of the famed Lisbon Fado houses before you are whisked away to the branches of Fado on the shores of Brazil, Cape Verde, Angola and... Canada.
Tickets are $25 per…
