The cycle «Concertos ao Entardecer» will continue next weekend, with two concerts by «A Jigsaw & The Great Moonshiners Band» that will bring music to the Sagres Fortress and to the headquarters of the ArQuente association, which organizes this event.
The Portuguese band will be at ArQuente's facilities, in Vila-Adentro de Faro, on the 2nd of July, at 19:30 pm, and at the Fortaleza de Sagres on the 3rd of July, at 18:00 pm.
The 2016 «Concerts at Sunset» cycle started on May 21st. The first two shows of this cycle of five concerts only took place in Faro. But, as has been the case since 2013, the collaboration between ArQuente and the Regional Directorate of Culture (DRC) of the Algarve, within the scope of the DiVaM-Dynamization and Valorization of Monuments program, has once again allowed the music of Portuguese artists who are emerging to be fame reached the Fortaleza de Sagres last week.
According to DRC do Algarve «“A Jigsaw”, composed by Jorri and João Silva, occupies a unique place in Portuguese and international music, with a sound inspired by the universe of North American popular music, in particular folk and blues».
«The French magazine Les Inrockuptibles claimed in 2012 that “A Jigsaw” were a band to follow. In 2014, the specialized magazine that puts them together with names such as Tom Waits and Leonard Cohen, warned once again not to lose sight of this duo from Coimbra.
The case is not for less: three years after the release of their last studio work, they finally reveal their album No True Magic in presentation concerts with the support band The Great Moonshiners Band, a name that reports to the moonshiners, the producers of illegal whiskey, distilled at night, under the light of the moon, in the times of Prohibition in the United States», adds the entity.
