The Lucky Duckies | 35 anos
Event
In 2022 the most popular vintage swing & rock'n'roll band of the Iberian Peninsula, The LUCKY DUCKIES, celebrates its 35th Anniversary with a very special tour.
They emerged in 1987 in Greater Lisbon by the hand of vocalist Marco António, founder and leader of the group, and gradually catapulted onto charismatic stages in Portugal and beyond. The highlight of this tour will be their concerts at the two Coliseus: Porto and Lisbon, as they are two of the few venues where the classic glamour of yesteryear is preserved, combined with their retro look and vintage musicality.
From very early on they began to receive invitations to perform on television. In the second half of their career, they started recording new arrangements of classics and some original songs with an intentionally old sound, but very stereophonic. One of the tracks they recorded, a new version of a Neapolitan classic "Tu Vuò Fà L'Americano", has already surpassed 4 million views, becoming one of the band's most famous songs.
It's easy to understand who they take inspiration from when we listen to artists such as The Rat Pack (Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin e Sammy Davis Jr.), Elvis Presley, Nat King Cole, Louis Prima, Jerry Lee Lewis, Fats Domino, Chuck Berry, Cliff Richard, Paul Anka, Bing Crosby, Al Jolson, Peggy Lee, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Doris Day, Connie Francis, Bobby Darin, Tony Bennett, Dick Farney, Carmen Miranda, Amália, Tony de Matos, Marino Marini, Renato Carosone, Françoise Hardy and many more.
However, lately they have been bringing new original and unreleased songs to the music scene. The single "Viva A Cerveja" is currently an anthem adopted by the Beer Brewers of Portugal. "Lisboa Sunset" is a new song offered by the prestigious lyricist and composer Nuno Nazareth Fernandes, a true painting in the shape of a song about the light of our capital city.
