He is one of the artists of the moment and can't wait to return to a stage where he was once very happy. Ivandro is one of the strong names in F Festival poster and promises, on September 5th, to give “a good party” to the thousands of fans he hopes to meet again in Faro.
On the sidelines of the F press conference, this Tuesday, July 16th, in Lisbon, the Sul Informação spoke to Ivandro who has «good prospects» for the concert he will give in the Algarve capital.
«This will be my third time at F. The first time, I was still like backing vocals of the Bishop; in the second, it was solo, in 2022, and it was incredible to see people enjoying it,” he said.
The artist also recalled the “nervousness” of those two moments.
“I remember my legs were shaking. Despite being a smaller stage, it was full, even very full. Now, I believe it will be the same, with many fans", said Ivandro, with a smile on his lips.
Author of hits such as “Chakras” or “Lua”, this has been the “best year” of the career of the Portuguese-Angolan artist who, recently, also became a father.
«Basically, it has been confirmation that I am here and that I will continue for several years because this is my profession and my dream», added Ivandro.
Furthermore, one of the marks that F has always tried to leave – and which is reinforced this year – is the focus precisely on emerging artists and not just on names known to the general public.
In the 2024 edition, the poster features 25% of Algarve artists. One of them is João Sotto who, not having been born in the region, has lived in the Algarve for eight years.
For the DJ, playing at Festival F will be “the highlight” of his career. «This is an incredible opportunity for me. It will certainly be a boom in my career", he confessed to Sul Informação, also on the sidelines of the press conference.
João Sotto will be on the Arco stage, overlooking the Ria Formosa, from 00:00 to 2:30, on the 5th.
«It's great to feel this investment in local artists who I think will notice this support from people even more because they know us», he added.
In statements to the Sul Informação, Rogério Bacalhau, president of the Chamber of Faro, considered that the F has, this year, «a very attractive lineup».
«I won't say if it's the best or the worst ever... What's certain is that it encompasses a wide range of types of music and we have something for all tastes, for the youngest, for the not so young and I'm convinced that this will be a excellent F», he considered.
In fact, today, with nine editions of the festival, this is already «a recognized brand».
«Faro, at the moment, it has three very strong brands: Farense, Motoclube and Festival F. Fortunately, F has already gained its space nationally and today we have no difficulties in bringing artists and that is a great source of pride for us », he concluded.
