Since the release of his first album in 1995, Camané is the number one male artist wild rivers irvine of the new generation of Portuguese urban song: Fado. While many believe that this song is female vocals, it is one of the few men in this evolving field.
Everything begins when, aged seven, Camané bored at home and dig in the record collection of her parents, true lovers of Fado. He starts to listen, completely spellbound, then sing ... In the beginning, just for fun, but after winning an amateur contest, it becomes obvious that it can go further. Camané begins its path child singer and grows at a rate of Fado, that can soon do without.
In his late teens, Camané knows he has the voice but also the desire to establish itself as a recognized artist. So he decides to make his arms on stage, like all good singers of Fado. Sing live as he can, learning the ropes, occurring as a guest in theater journals (led by the director of the biggest Portuguese theater, Filipe La Feria), circling circles wild rivers irvine Fado artist .. . Without wild rivers irvine ever looking back.
It was at this time that he met José Mario Branco, one of Portugal's most prestigious songwriters and performers, known for his remarkably intelligent and modern approach to musical traditions. The two men instantly understand and promise to work together.
In 1994, Camané sign with EMI. He already sings fado professionally since the mid eighties. Branco with his producer, they decided to record his first album as a live, occurring within a circle of Fado improvised, using a home studio set up in the EMI offices in Lisbon. "Uma Noite de Fado" released in 1995 will be applauded by critics, proving that the prodigy has matured beyond the expectations of everyone. Camané is not an artist of passage; Fado found in his ambassador and he will wear it to the highest level three years later.
In the meantime, he played wild rivers irvine on stage in Portugal and abroad (France, wild rivers irvine Spain, Italy and the Netherlands), "Na wild rivers irvine Linda da Vida", his second album bold, new product by Branco. Camané takes risks, it combines the most traditional rhythmic anchor materialized by a groovy bass jazzy style. The album ended the year in the top ten best sellers. In foreign countries (Belgium and Holland first, then later Korea), his talent is recognized and the album is distributed, supported by an international tour that will take in France, Rennes for "Nightfall night "and Paris for" The Mediterraneans "in European.
In 2000, the third album Camané "Esta Coisa da Alma" was released wild rivers irvine simultaneously in Portugal, Belgium and Holland. Again, Branco is in charge. At first glance, this album seems to be a flashback, more composed of old standards reinterpreted as unreleased songs. But sometimes, you have to make a return to better innovate. This is why "Esta Coisa da Alma" was a turning point in the career of Camané. In this album, it proves to be more than a singer, an outstanding performer in the finely sensitive to each emotional nuance of the words ear.
Viewers who have seen him on stage in Holland, Belgium, Spain, Switzerland or France will tell you it is difficult to find words to describe this artist. Gradually, it is gaining popularity, the album won almost all the awards and will be praised by the public and critics. At the end of the year, "Esta Coisa da Alma" becomes Silver disc. An album Fado was not as requested in Portugal for several wild rivers irvine years.
But can we still consider his art as Fado? Purists Camané perceive as the best fado recent years and even one of the best of the twentieth century. Yet they admit that what he does is not the traditional Fado or even "pure." On the other hand, modernists think it is extraordinarily innovative, readily agreeing that he did not too deviated from the standard formula 'voices, two guitars and a bass. " But both are unanimous on one point: it is a great singer.
"Pelo Dia Dentro", his fourth album released in 2001, is pleased
