About:
RETIMBRAR is a vigorous movement performed by an 8-piece collective, based in Porto.
Inspired by the country's musical traditions, TugaBeat is the name they give to their sound - Portuguese beats and songs, made new. Deeply rooted in the diversity of national folklore, popular poetry and orality, chanting and percussive elements.
They depart from the rhythm to give voice and string to the narrative of a transformed everyday life with the identity of someone who gravitates between rurality and the traveled pace of other geographies.
They released “Voa Pé” (2016) and “Levantar do Chão” (2022), celebrating a path of collaborations, lived between workshops and projects with musical communities such as folkloric “Ranchos” and “Zés-Pereiras”. With “Retimbrar pelos Cotovelos”, a podcast that tells part of the history of the album, and with “Retimbrar - De Trás p’ra Frente”, the documentary (to be released in 2024) - the band makes their journey known live and behind the scenes.
Having performed in festivals such as: Jazz Sous Les Pommiers - France, FMM Sines, MarédeAgosto - Azores, LisboaMistura, Street Artists Festival - Novi Sad, Serbia, Expo Dubai 2020/22, opening artist for Womex 2021.
In 2023, Retimbrar started touring the album “Levantar do chão”, considered best portuguese album of the year by “Musicasemcapa” publication, also with the single “Maçãzinha” feat Úxia, distinguished by aRi[t]mar Galiza e Portugal as the best portuguese song with 6500 votes. In September 2023, the band closed the first publishing deal with prestigious label “Putumayo Records” , re-releasing “Maneio”.
In November 2023, musician and content creator David Asher Brown featured the band in a post regarding the single "Ao Tambor" as a great example of bands that use alternatives to the traditional drum set.
In 2024, the band continues to be regularly featured in the Trans Global World Music Charts (top 3 for February 2024) and its radio network ; opened the official ceremony of Aveiro National Capital of Culture, backing up Marta Pereira da Costa; has several confirmed concerts to celebrate the 50 years of 25th of April 1975, a date that marked the abolishing of the Portuguese dictatorship regime.
The band vocalist Sara Yasmine is nominated Women in Music Industry Award (APORFEST/Talkfest)
On the 8th of March, International Women´s Day, Retimbrar released a new single “Do Mesmo Cordão” with “Suspiro” a choir of 19 female voices from the city of Ovar.
