In mid-August in the village of Cem Soldos near Tomar, the Bons Sons Festival spotlights the best of Portuguese music, embracing all genres and open to all generations.

On February 10, 2022, at LAV Lisboa ao Vivo, the real rock 'n' roll pump injected with punk, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes present the new "Sticky" in Portugal at the beginning of next year.

The Cut Copy concert at the Lisbon Coliseum was rescheduled for 29 October. Australians bring to Portugal the sixth album "Freeze, Melt", which was released on 21 August this year, which includes the singles already released "Like Breaking Glass", "Love is All We Share" and "Cold Water". " Like Breaking Glass" evokes in a particular way the group’s music of excellence, emerging from it the high quality sounds and the unmistakable vocal skills of vocalist, Dan Whitford. Cut Copy are, without a shadow of a doubt, the perfect match between the electro-pop aesthetic, with the sensibility of an indie rock band, and that’s what makes them unique.
