The shows amazing power and positive energy was wildly received by our audiences at summer festivals
In 2001 we toured Spain, France and Italy. Once back in Portugal, we received various proposals from labels and agents. Dedicted to not signing with corporate agencies or multinationals, they released their first album “TERRAKOTA”(2002) with the indepen- dent editorial Zona Música. A deliberate decision to stay far away from all lobbies and to do everything their own way.
The new album had a major impact and took us on tour all over Europe during for next two summers. The shows amazing power and positive energy was wildly received by our audiences at summer festivals, this then give us more opportunity to travel through new musical landscapes, expanding our borders, both physically and spiritually.
The show got richer and new ideas came up, resulting in our second al- bum “HUMUS SAPIENS” which was recorded in March 2004 at Youssou N’Dour’s Xippi Studios in Dakar,
Senegal. A new maturity resulted in a clearly recognisable Terrakota sound. With more balanced lyrics in ten different languages and dialects. The albums took us back on tour all over Europe, playing for many different audiences, from big festivals to little villages, learning the tricks of the trade and meeting many musicians and positive people.
Whenever possible, we also took our time to travel to places far away, to recharge our batteries and to search for new sounds, new musical expres- sions, new smells and feelings. Over a ten yeas period, we travelled through Burkina Faso, India, Senegal, Cuba,
Guinea, Brazil, Mali, Argentina, Turkey, Morocco, Ivory Coast, Mozambique and Mexico. Breakthrough came In 2007. A completely self-produced third album “OBA TRAIN” saw caught the limelight, distributed worldwide by Felmay of Italy.
