ANA LUA CAIANO

Tradition and innovation united by the hands of Ana Lua Caiano. The artist explores musical fusion, through the combination of traditional Portuguese music with electronic and “day-to-day sounds”. Creating melodies that refer to tradition – making use of choirs, harmonies and canons – in a union with synthesizers, beat-machines and sounds taken from everyday life, his music brings the traditional Portuguese heritage to the modern, electronic and technological world. Despite being at the beginning of her career, Ana Lua Caiand already has almost three dozens of shows in several stages from north to south of the country. In July 2021, she won a contest promoted by SDB Sessions, which earned him the recording of three live songs at Arda Recorders and their vinyl edition. In October Ana performed at WOMEX with a showcase at the most important global fair of world musicm one month after launching her debut EP “Cheguei Tarde a Ontem”; . Live, she performs as a “one woman show” with a synthesizer, a loop station, a microphone, a bass drum and several percussive instruments, which through the overlapping of loops allow her to create several sound layers and environments, alone and in real time. . For 2023, Ana Lua Caiano will release a new EP, scheduled for the second quarter of the new year.
