À propos de Carlos do Carmo

The son of fado singer Lucilia do Carmo, Carlos do Carmo modernized fado by introducing new harmonies and collaborating with contemporary composers. His 'Lisboa Menina e Moca' became an unofficial anthem of the capital. He received the Latin Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2014.
