Biography

Mísia is a pseudonym of singer Susana Maria Alfonso de Aguiar (b. 1955, Porto, Portugal). She was the first portuguese singer of the xxth century to bring a revolution to fado, by making it free of its stereotyped form.

Throughout her career, in which it is clearly traced and expressed a deep respect, understanding and humbleness before Fado, Mísia developed a new style: she stripped the Fado off the shawl of the “amalian” type, and adds to the traditional instruments (bass guitar, classical guitar and Portuguese guitar) the sensuality of the accordion and the violin, and borrows from the best Portuguese poets their finest verses.
