As a solo artist or with his band The Clinch Fado Boys, Jose presents a unique musical perspective that is purely "Portuguese". Jose's musical narratives touch on themes such as home, journey, loss and fulfilment.With his time-honored sense of story telling, Jose offers beautiful Latin melodies as well as raucous and driving rhytms.
