Joana Alegre

**Joana Alegre** is a Lisbon-based Portuguese singer-songwriter who’s become a standout voice in contemporary fado and alt-fado circles. Known for her smoky vocals and poetic lyricism, she blends traditional Portuguese roots with modern, genre-fluid experimentation—think melancholic fado guitars meeting jazz-inflected arrangements or atmospheric electronic touches. Her recent releases, like the introspective *LUAS* and the raw *Rosa Carne*, showcase her knack for weaving personal storytelling with universal themes of love, longing, and self-discovery. A collaborator at heart, she’s worked with artists like Mário Laginha and Pedro Moreira, and her live performances (often peppered with theatrical flair) have solidified her rep as a dynamic force in Portugal’s evolving music scene. Whether she’s channeling classic saudade or pushing boundaries, Joana keeps her sound rooted in emotional honesty—no filters.
