Fado star Maria do Carmo Carvalho Rebelo de Andrade, better known as Carminho, is set to perform at the Udaipur World Music Festival. The event takes place Saturday and Sunday, February 13 & 14, 2016.
Her debut album “Fado” (EMI) was one of the most acclaimed albums in Portugal in 2009; it went Platinum. Fado was followed by Alma (EMI,2012) and Canto (Warner Music, 2014).
Carminho’s success led to a showcase at WOMEX 2011 and in the UNESCO headquarters, in Paris, within the scope of Fado as World Heritage candidate. Then came the invitation to participate in Pablo Alborán’s “Pablo Alboran” album, which became a phenomenon of popularity in both Portugal and Spain.
