Madu (BR)
Madu is a singer, songwriter and performer who was born in Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil. There she studied at the Pernambuco Conservatory of Music, did popular dance, theatre and circus, fabric and lyre. He even sang upside down during an acrobatic performance. These experiences moulded her dexterity and movements on stage, creating a unique symbiosis between dance and music, body and voice. This fusion has become one of the hallmarks of her live performances. At just 24, she is already making significant waves on the contemporary music scene, especially in Lisbon, where she has been based since 2019 and where she began her authorial career. Madu’s music is deeply rooted in her northeastern origins, and her homesickness inspired her to share the energy and musicality characteristic of the people of Pernambuco in her compositions. In recent years, her artistic project has progressed significantly, culminating in the release of her first EP, entitled MADU.
