Sara Tavares who sung for Portugal aged 16 in 1994 Chamar a música - one of the finest Portuguese efforts ever - has followed Dulce Pontes's footsteps to international fame and love of the critics and fans alike. While Dulce has went for fado oriented stuff, Sara has taken her Capo Verdian roots into use in her music. Fantastic voice, beautiful melodies. Another go in Eurovision might do wonders for her career and spread her music even wider. She has recently released a new album Xinti after last year's Alive! In Lisboa. She has just started a new tour in Portugal that will later take her to Germany, Sweden, Finland (September 29 in Helsinki), France and a long tour in the USA.
