Mimicat

Mimicat is the vibrant stage name of Portuguese singer Marisa Mena, a modern fado innovator who spices up traditional Portuguese soul with pop flair. Bursting onto the international stage in 2023, she represented Portugal at Eurovision with her fiery entry *Agora é Hora* (which translates to *Now Is the Time*), blending sultry vocals, retro jazz vibes, and a wink of theatricality. Her music often pays homage to her roots – check out *25 DE ABRIL*, where she reimagines protest songs tied to Portugal's 1974 Carnation Revolution with a fresh, genre-blending twist. Tracks like *Ai Coração* and *Dança Comigo* showcase her knack for turning emotional storytelling into danceable anthems, while *Peito* and *Tudo ao Ar* highlight her smoky, expressive voice. Mimicat’s style is all about celebrating Portuguese culture while keeping things playful and accessible – think vintage cabaret energy meets 21st-century pop magnetism. Whether she’s reviving classics or crafting new gems, she’s become a standout voice in Portugal’s music revival.
