Rita Redshoes album release and performances

Overview

Portuguese singer Rita Redshoes has released her seventh studio album, ‘Fala’, which was officially released on September 25. The project serves as a tribute to female composers and songwriters within the Portuguese music scene, featuring ten original songs written by artists including Márcia, Mafalda Veiga, Garota Não, Amélia Muge, Cláudia Pascoal, Ana Bacalhau, Joana Espadinha, Minta, Marília Miranda Lopes, and Margarida Campelo, with collaboration from Ana Cláudia.

The album explores themes of motherhood, family, identity, freedom, and the exhaustion associated with parenting. Redshoes has noted that while the songs are written through a female lens, they are not strictly confined to gender-specific issues. This work follows her 2012 show ‘The Other Women’, which honored international inspirations like Nina Simone and Joni Mitchell.

To present the new work, Redshoes performed at Casa da Música in Porto on October 24. She is also scheduled to perform at Teatro Maria Matos in Lisbon on October 28. During these performances, she is accompanied by musicians Sérgio Mendes, Miguel Moreira, and Bernardo Pereira. The artist also continues her pedagogical work involving music centered on balanced nutrition.
