António Zambujo was born in Beja, Alentejo (South of Portugal) in 1975. He grew up listening to the traditional male chant called ‘Cante Alentejano’ that became one of his strongest influences.
Around the age of 8, Zambujo started studying clarinet but soon he fell in love with Fado when listening to Amália Rodrigues, Alfredo Marceneiro, Maria Teresa de Noronha and João Ferreira Rosa. And it was singing, when he was 16 years old, that he won a regional Fado contest.
His professional carreer started when Mário Pacheco, the renowned Portuguese guitarist and composer, invited him to sing in his Clube de Fado, in Lisbon. Not for a long time though… After an audition, António was chosen to take the role of Francisco da Cruz, Amalia’s first husband, in the blockbuster Musical ‘Amália’. He performed continuously during 4 years in Lisbon and after that he toured all around Portugal achieving enormous success. ‘It was a unique experience that taught me the stage «feeling» plus the strict working discipline of a theatre company’.
In 2002 his first record ‘O mesmo Fado’ was released. Though you can find in it, as in all Zambujo’s records, some influences of ..Cante Alentejano’, the record achieved great recognition in the “Fado world’. Several songs were chosen to be part of major Fado anthologies and António Zambujo won the prestigious ‘Radio Nova FM’ prize for the ‘Best new Fado voice’ that was previously addressed to Mariza, Camané and Mafalda Arnauth.
The 2004’s ‘Por meu cante’ gave us some clues about Zambujo’s future artistic path. His homeland influences were clearer, the merge between ‘Cante Alentejano’ and Fado was always present and, though it happened to be somehow controversial, no impeachment was called. António Zambujo won the Amália Rodrigues Foundation’s prize for the Best Fado Male Singer.
2007 is a significant year in Zambujo’s career. His third record ‘Outro sentido’ is a statement from a mature artist that has found his own particular way. Also the remarkable Lisbon’s festival closing concert and the duet with Luís Represas, a top pop singer, have shown that Zambujo and his music are really difficult to label.

Espero que tengas suficiente felicidad para hacerte dulce, suficientes pruebas para hacerte fuerte, suficiente dolor para mantenerte humano, suficiente esperanza para ser feliz, las personas más felices no siempre tienen lo mejor de todo. La felicidad espera aquellos que lloran, aquellos que han sido lastimados, aquellos que buscan, aquellos que tratan, porque sólo ellos pueden apreciar la importancia de las personas que han tocado sus vidas. No puedes ir feliz por la vida hasta que dejes ir tus fracasos pasados y los dolores de tu corazón. (Teresa de Calcuta)
Absurdamente o titulo choca-se, contradiz-se... O que uma coisa haverá de ter com a outra? Sendo a música de grande poder lúdico E a cocaína o entrelace das desgraças reais... Há quase setenta anos Sigmund Freud Receitava aos seus pacientes cocaína. E fora usuário, Charles Baudelaire O mais digno comedor de ópio Membro do clube haxixes descrevera Em seu livro, “Paraíso Artificiais” Os poderes alucinógenos Pelo o uso das tais substâncias... Ficar-se-ia nessa obra sua visão “católico-caótica” Sendo assim mais um relato de forma implícita de droga! Na inquisição não eram queimados ingênuos baseados Por jovens bronzeados, por jovens escandinavos Ou de olhinhos puxados... Eram jogados à fogueira grandes pensadores, gênios... Quem ousaria falar que a Terra era redonda? Galileu ousou... Ah, hoje sabemos o fim desse episódio. Rimbaud seria nesse século o expoente-mor Das loucuras astrais, seria a sensação do rock Não o rock abobalhado, não esse rock pobre, estúpido Meramente comercial, esse triste rock ‘n’ roll mundial Com refrões que nem a mais complacente Licença poética permite. No Brasil canta-se. “Ela com a boca dela, com a toalha dela.” “Ah! Pela última vez, ah! Pela última.” Que seja assim a última vez. Os grandes selos, gravadoras... Converteram-se ao protestantismo. Sabendo do público fiel consumidor Lancemos ao mercado fonográfico as testemunhas de Jeová. Saravá meu pai! Quanto apelo em busca de dinheiro. Prosseguem empurrando aos tímpanos do povo bregas-rômanticos De autêntico gosto ruim! De fato odeio as almas pequenas, não há nada de bom E quase nada de mal Confesso posso sentir ainda hoje o gosto do whisky E o aroma dos charutos do mestre Tom Jobim Admito que a pieguice impregnada da bossa Com sua batida e sua influência do jazz Satisfez-me, imagino-me caminhando ao lado Do Vinícius de Moraes nos dias de “balança-mais-não-cai...”. Não obstante, apenas imaginação fértil. Na crueldade dessa
Thanks so much for the Add–and your friendship. We enjoyed your music very much. Thanks for sharing it with all of us. It's a pleasure having you among our friends! We've just added two new blogs about Umano, plus four more new compositions, making ten on our space. We hope you and your friends visit us and enjoy our music, too. We wake up every morning and play the music of the new MySpace friends who have arrived at our site during the night. It occurred to us that these friends (you are among them) are almost universally positive, whether they be novices or legends, and without regard to their station in life or the country they occupy. Although it's not an original thought, it also occurred to us that we couldn’t hold a verbal conversation with most of these friends, but we have bridged that gap by expressing our art honestly with each other. We all have been filling the world with our music and art, in the hope that our messages of love and human understanding will have an impact on the world at large. What a gift and what an opportunity we have received from this technology!
