Miramar is a project that brings together the talented guitarists Frankie Chavez and Peixe (Ornatos Violeta, Pluto) and which resulted from a chance meeting between the two musicians at the Guitarras ao Alto festival in Alentejo in 2017. On their debut album, “Miramar”, released in 2019, the duo presented an instrumental dialogue that, with originality and freshness, evoked the dramatic sobriety rooted in the Portuguese guitar tradition. In January 2020, the duo performed this disc live at the Eurosonic Festival in Groningen (Netherlands). The successor, “Miramar II”, composed and produced during the pandemic and released in 2022, brings a brighter and more adventurous set of songs, suggesting echoes of the best Portuguese popular music of the last century, while transporting us along deserted Texas roads. Highlights include the participation of pianist Mário Laginha and a version of “Celulitite” by Conan Osiris. In the same year, as part of the Esfera project, an initiative of director André Tentúgal and broadcaster Henrique Amaro, Miramar collaborated with JP Simões on the track “Thelma”.
