MIROCA PARIS on tour with MADONNA’s MadameX!
After working with Madonna since the beginning of 2019, multi-instrumentalist and singer Miroca Paris has now been invited to join Madonna on her new theater tour ‘MadameX’, inspired by his hometown of Lisbon!
The Cabo Verdean native now living in Lisbon, first met Madonna years ago when she attended a concert of Cesaria Evora in London and came backstage to meet the Cabo Verdean Diva and band. Since Madonna moved to Lisbon a few years ago, it seemed like only a matter of time until their paths would cross again.
Madonna’s new album MadameX was hugely inspired by the vibrant Portuguese capital, from the intimate fado cafes, to the warm people and musical traditions from the Portuguese speaking countries such as Brazil, Angola and of course Cabo Verde. As a long time admirer of Cesaria we’re delighted Miroca, as one of the youngest members of the former band, will be working with her on this new project.
From Barefoot Diva to the Queen of Pop, Miroca Paris implements his skill and rhythm rooted in deep culture.
Miroca Paris – “I’m excited to share the fantastic news that I’ll be performing with MADONNA during her MadameX tour in the USA and Europe! It’s an honor to work with the Queen of Pop and her excellent team, incorporating sounds from Portugal, Cabo Verde and much more.”
Rehearsals start in New York in July 2019, premiering at the Brooklyn Academy of Music 17 Sept 2019. The tour will continue throughout the USA until Christmas and will continue in Lisbon, London and Paris until mid March 2020.
