Fátima Santos Fado Trio World Music Band from Newark, NJ

Fátima Santos and her Fado Trio perform Fado, a urban Portuguese traditional type of song. Fado, meaning fate, mourning, or nostalgia, is considered the soul of Portuguese music culture, like the "Portuguese blues". Fátima Santos, a winner of the International Portuguese Music Awards 2014 in the category of World Music-Fado, performs a repertoire where there is room for traditional and contemporary forms of Fado, accompanied by Portuguese and classical guitars. Very active in the Tri-State area (New Jersey-New York-Pennsylvania), Fátima Santos Fado Trio's performances are the perfect and elegant musical complement for social events as well as cultural/ educational sessions in schools or other venues.
