Raised in northern Portugal, she studied nursing in Porto, before moving to Lisbon to work in a hospital by day, while beginning a musical career by night, singing in the fado houses and meeting artists from every corner of the Lusophone world. With her artistic compass oriented towards exploring traditional rhythms, urban musical treasures of Lisbon, and contemporary sounds from Cabo Verde and Brazil, she manifests an original and mutually invigorating fusion of fado, morna and choro. Committed to using music to make a positive impact, Cristina Clara invites you on a musical journey through Lisbon, into the spiritual brotherhood that has blossomed among musicians from various backgrounds in the city, alerting you to poetry traversing the joys and pains of contemporary complexity, and guiding you to a unique and heartfelt experience.
