Porto-born Fado singer Claudia Aurora stands as one of the few artists outside Portugal to have made a truly significant mark on this revered genre. Her collaboration as a songwriter with Spanish guitarist Javier Moreno has taken them to some of the most prestigious stages across the UK, Europe, and even as far afield as South Korea and Oman. Aurora’s performances are renowned for their  healing power, where every note delivers heartfelt and deep emotion.

Her voice—a captivating fusion of power and soul—intertwines effortlessly with Moreno's delicate yet expressive guitar playing. Joining them now is Portuguese jazz guitarist Pedro Velasco, playing the traditional and enchanting Portuguese guitar. His tender, nuanced touch mirrors the ebb and flow of the tides. Together, they craft an intoxicating, immersive experience, drawing listeners into a world of longing, passion, and profound beauty—what they call "beautiful sadness."

Whether performing original compositions or traditional Fado, Aurora’s voice, with its haunting richness, and the evocative strings of the Portuguese and Spanish guitars, come together in a spellbinding union. Their music is a visceral journey, full of drama, sorrow, and the melancholic essence of saudade, the soul-stirring Portuguese yearning for what’s lost but never forgotten.
