Review: Os Capitães da Areia in Cascais, Festas do Mar

Festas do Mar are a small festivities held in Cascais in order to promote the local tourism

Besides, many different activities during the day around the village, they also celebrate music, mostly Portuguese artists and counting, in some nights, with amazing firework shows above the Cascais Bay.

This year, this festivities are happening from August 16th to 25th.

Os Capitães da Areia were one of the confirmed bands to perform at Festas do Mar, on August 19th.
Personally, I'm a fan of Os Capitães da Areia so I had a huge expectation for this particular gig.
Fortunately, they surprised me.

Os Capitães da Areia are a very particular band. They are young and somehow fresh, with easy-going lyrics and upbeat (not mentioning, really catchy) instrumentals and it is always exciting to see such young bands performing with such personality and capacity of entertaining an audience, not always easy to get.

They did their job - they threw a party, celebrated the Portuguese music and particularly, Portugal (one of their favorite topics).

Forty minutes that flew mixed with a great sense of humour, energy and willing to give their best.
On a fun travel between their two records, O Verão Eterno d'Os Capitães da Areia and A Viagem dos Capitães da Areia abordo do Apolo 70, there was also a stop in new songs like É Tão Bom Fazer Splash.

Their show ain't never boring... Sometimes I could listen to such different Portuguese references like GNR or Heróis do Mar and yet, they are able to be unique and innovative in their music and presentation.

Go check one of their shows. It's really worth it.
