Portuguese singer Mariza has returned to the United States to give a number of intimate concerts, going back to her roots to perform special acoustic sets of stripped-down traditional Fado as it would be heard in a small club in Lisbon. The tour began at Bing Concert Hall in Stanford, California, last night and continues in the Bay Area with a four-night, eight-show residency at SFJAZZ Center's Joe Henderson Lab, tonight through Sunday. Mariza then brings the music east for concerts in Brooklyn, DC, and New Jersey, and at City Winery venues in Chicago, Boston, and New York. See below for all of the upcoming shows; for details, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.
Mariza's album Mundo earned her the Songlines Best Artist of the Year award following its international release in 2015, and was released in the United States on Nonesuch Records in 2016. The album features both new material and classics by Amália Rodrigues, Carlos Gardel, and more. "Mundo was an unalloyed triumph," says Songlines, "her artistry hitting dynamic new heights and her voice expressing every emotional nuance, whether singing a gentle and intimate lullaby for her young son or melodramatically letting rip on the high notes with the force of an operatic diva."
To pick up a copy of Mundo in the US, visit iTunes, Amazon, and the Nonesuch Store, where CD orders include a download of the complete album at checkout, and listen on Spotify and Apple Music.
