Anna Mora began unveiling her new album, Casa Gilhermina, seventh from her multi-platinum album, in an exclusive interview with Expresso, in May last year. Acknowledging that although it was the first step into a new life, free from the industrial structures that had always accompanied it, i.e. publishing and management, he assured us that the record still reflected “the will to discover new things”, something that has always been a part of you. Since then becoming a mother for the first time, she postponed the album release that was scheduled for October 2021, gave the parties she had scheduled since before the pandemic and began performing the new show, as well as tearing it up. , in three very different songs – “Andorinhas”, “Jacarandá” and “Agarra Em Mim”, in a duet with his partner and co-recording producer, Pedro Mafama – are the eclectic lines with which “Casa Guilhermina” is sewn. In the interview, he assured us that there would be “absolutely no severance” with Fado: “This record is nothing but exclusion. It is inclusion, it is the collection of all my inheritances. I shake with malhão and viras when I am with my father the same way I shake with my father semba when I’m with my mom.” “Arraial Triste,” the new song, brings the philosophy of openness to the world.
