Linda Martini, Angel Olsen and Tash Sultana have released new music that you can’t miss! The Portuguese band and the two artists perform at the 15th edition of NOS Alive, on July 7 and 8, respectively. Get to know the new songs now and guarantee your two-day pass (July 7 and 8) here.
Linda Martini – Commercial Radio
“Rádio Comercial” is the new single from the band that celebrates 20 years of career and takes the NOS Stage at the 15th edition of NOS Alive. The theme is part of the band’s most recent album – Errôr – and is one of the most abrasive songs to come out of the band’s rehearsal room in 20 years of activity. The video, which you can watch here, mirrors the energy lived in the debut shows of the new tour and the communion of the band with the public; from the fans that have followed them since the first album and/or live performance, to those that are conquered year after year, in a cult that renews itself. The band was also nominated this year for the PLAY – Portuguese Music Awards in the “Best Group” category.
Angel Olsen – Nothing’s Free
After the release of Big Time Angel Olsen blesses us again with Forever Means, a new EP due out April 14th. “Nothing’s Free” is the first advance of this record that brings together songs that were recorded during the Big Time sessions. Continuing the theme of the previous album, Olsen explores the wisdom that comes from the duality between pain and love, and the realization that life has no destination or end point as we live it. “Nothing’s Free” “is about that point where the self-denial breaks down, and you realize how long you’d been restricting who you are,” Olsen says. On July 8, he will take the Heineken Stage to perform at the 15th edition of NOS Alive.
Tash Sultana – James Dean
Reflection and a solid groove take center stage on Tash Sultana’s first release of this year. On “James Dean,” Tash takes us on a journey of intense self-reflection as she sings about moving forward and surrounding herself with people who add value to life, in an exciting arrangement that allows Tash’s unmistakable voice to come to the fore. “I feel like the goal of my career has always been DIY. I’ve always produced everything, written everything, played every instrument you hear, designed, co-developed and sometimes even mixed and mastered,” says Tash Sultana. “I’ve always done all that, but I feel like people still don’t get it, and for me, it’s the message that’s most important.” This is the first advance of Tash’s next work, scheduled to be released in 2023 and playing on the Heineken Stage of the 15th edition of NOS Alive on July 7.
