Following the release of “Lampedusa”, the first track from Luca Argel’s new studio album, entitled “Visita”, now comes “Anos Doze”. The song was part of the album “Conversa de Fila” (2019) in a different version, and it is revisited in this new project by the singer in an intimate and complicit version in which Luca Argel is accompanied by the keys of Bahian pianist Pri Azevedo.
The new album “Visita” will be released on October 18th, in which the Portuguese-Brazilian singer revisits, in new versions, a series of songs from previous albums, as well as some partnerships that had never been recorded in his voice.
"This song was originally released on the album “Conversa de Fila” (2019), and to this day it is my most listened to song online, most requested at concerts, and most re-recorded by followers in videos on the internet. The reason for all this is childhood nostalgia. The lyrics are full of humorous references to games and TV shows from the early 2000s, which impacted an entire generation. The arrangement of this new version reinforced the references already present in the lyrics with musical quotes, and ended up being even funnier than the original." Luca Argel
The new album “Visita” will be presented live in November in Porto, the city that welcomed Luca Argel when he first moved to Portugal over 10 years ago, as well as in Lisbon. On November 3rd, Luca Argel and Pri Azevedo take to the stage of the Salão Ático – Coliseu Porto Ageas and, a few days later, on November 7th, they perform at Auditório Nova Cultura UNL (Pólo de Campolide). Tickets for the Porto show are already available. For the Lisbon concert, they will go on sale very soon.
Alongside the songs from “Visita”, on September 6th Luca Argel will release the first episode of a MiniDoc divided into 5 episodes. Filmed during the recording sessions for the album, this MiniDoc reveals to the public a little of the stories behind the songs and the artists. The first episode begins with a naughty note that Luca wrote to his parents when he was a child, and expresses how he met Pri, many years before they both arrived in Portugal, or even dreamed of playing together. The remaining episodes add layers to this story, which is materialized in this new album full of complicity and stories to tell.
