Jessica Lloyd and Louis Simão in \

Inscribed in 2011 on UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, Fado is best known as the urban popular song of Lisbon, Portugal. But, like any art, it has varied influences and it continues to evolve. Join vocalist, Jessica Lloyd and multi-instrumentalist, composer and vocalist, Louis Simão as they take you on a journey through the ages and landscapes that together weave the musical threads of Fado. Joined by Sam Gleason on guitar and Fabio Ragnelli playing percussion, you will experience the traditional sounds of the famed Lisbon Fado houses before you are whisked away to the future of Fado on the shores of Brazil, Cape Verde, Angola and... Toronto!
