As a prototype of a modern European, Telmo Pires, who was born in Portugal, commutes between his home and the urban metropolises of Paris and Berlin. The influences of these different cultures and life styles form the basis of his artistic creation. Love for his own cultural roots, and openness and sensibility for musical encounters gave birth to his exceptional fado style. The Berlin magazine Zitty wrote: “Pires’ own individual interpretation of Portuguese soul music progressively grows, bowing down respectfully in front of tradition, yet without shutting out the influences from his life in Berlin.”

Telmo Pires spent three decades in his adopted home Berlin before he decided, in 2010, to continue his musical career in Lisbon, returning to his hometown and the birthplace of fado.
