Biography

OqueStrada was born on the periphery of Lisbon in the turn of the millennium, from the desire to create a portable musical in the shape of a small neighbourhood orchestra that gave focus to the unique identity of each musician. This small rambling orchestra toured Portugal for years, building up a career on the stage, conquering public of every age. Over these years, OqueStrada came upon a Portuguese sound that tells about a country living the transition between the countryside and the city, between the two centuries. In 2009, the debut album, »Tasca Beat - O Sonho Português«, is finally released in Portugal and the secret of many gets revealed to a greater audience. Received by the press as one of the best albums of the year, it becomes gold and one of its songs gets nominated for the Sociedade Portuguesa de Autores (the society of Portuguese authors) awards. In 2010, this Portuguese dream is revealed internationally on JARO Medien.
