Living in Portugal

Cuando Julieta está a punto de abandonar Madrid para irse a vivir a Portugal, se encuentra por casualidad con Bea, una antigua amiga de su hija Antía, de la que no sabe nada desde hace años. Bea le cuenta que vio a Antía en el lago Como, en Italia, y que tiene 3 hijos.

Fred Frith, the living legend at the crossroads of rock and jazz, improvisation and composition, meets Brazilian drummer, singer, and composer Mariá Portugal. Mariá Portugal has been active in the Brazilian music scene for over 20 years, now lives in Berlin, and has strong connections to European improvised music. Her deep roots in the Brazilian singing/songwriting tradition, coupled with a keen interest in electronic music, improvisation, and its use in song composition, make her an artist who moves in diverse musical contexts. This duo is a stroke of luck, because if contemporary European music has produced a truly legendary and globally significant figure in that exciting area where all stylistic boundaries are called into question, it is probably the guitarist Fred Frith. Mariá Portugal and Fred Frith come from two different continents, generations, and musical worlds, yet they have a lot in common: this fascinating debut album proves that impressively.

In The Mountain In The Cloud marks Portugal. The Man's sixth full-length in as many years, as well as the band's debut for Atlantic Records. Carrying forth the momentum triggered by their unexpected rise in 2006, and their FM airwave success of "People Say" (from 2009's The Satanic Satanist), In The Mountain In The Cloud continues the pattern of an album per calendar year, a feat made all the more staggering when you consider the band's fervent devotion to the open road, logging over 800 shows-performing everywhere from freight elevators to a mesmerizing set at Bonnaroo-since their inception.

Portugal's economy has gone through a gradual recovery from a deep recession.
