Next week's Live Spotlight: JP SIMÕES - August 30th - Museu do Chiado

Since the start of his career on the fertile '90s alternative scene, JP Simões has been working to be one of the best Portuguese singer-songwriters. Bands like Belle Chase Hotel or Quinteto Tati had already showcased his knack for songcraft, mixing Leonard Cohen-classicism, jazz elegance and alt.rock energy, but the release of his first solo album, 1970 (the year of his birth), exposed his greatest passion: bossa-nova, as professed by the late great Tom Jobim. With a new album in the stores called Roma, where he expands on his previous musical palette, JP Simões will no doubt conquer the hearts of those who haven't yet been converted.
