Xutos & Pontapés will perform on April 13, 2024 in a concert at the Pavilhão Multiusos de Guimarães, on a tour entitled “Olá, vida malvada” (Hello, wicked life) to commemorate the group’s 45-year career, the promoter announced today.
In a statement, the organization added that the group will return to the road in 2024 to “celebrate 45 years of success”.
“An opportunity to hear once again the great hits of the greatest Portuguese rock band that have marked several generations,” reads the statement, which includes an appeal to the band’s fans to celebrate a “memorable show” with them.
Later this year, on the 31st, as part of the Arena Alive 2023 Concerts, Xutos & Pontapés will play a concert at the Casino Lisboa.
Between last year and this year, the band marked the 35th anniversary of the album “Circo de Feras” with several concerts around the country, which included the participation of guitarist Tó Trips.
Xutos & Pontapés emerged 44 years ago, starting with their first concert on January 13, 1979, at the Alunos de Apolo in Lisbon.
Even after the death of guitarist Zé Pedro in 2017, the band remained active, on stage and in the studio, with Tim (vocalist and bassist), João Cabeleira (guitarist), Gui (saxophonist) and Kalú (drummer).
