Secret Chiefs 3

Poster: Dayana Lucas / Lettering: SC3

After last year's concert in Plano B, the one and only Secret Chiefs 3 returned to Porto, this time at Passos Manuel, boasting their classic line-up including Shazad Ismaily (bass) and Ches Smith (drums), and treating the audience to a memorable fusion of surf-rock, persian/arabic melodies and abstract noise sections, in what was surely of the best shows of the year.

The opening act was provided by Franklin Pereira, a pioneer in the study and performance of classical indian music in Portugal since the late 70s, who performed Raga Darbari Kanada.

Like last year, this event was organised by Soopa and Amplificasom.
