Filipa Santos | Miguel Moreira
Now Swim
This exploratory music project, founded in 2013 in Porto, brings together multi-instrumentalists Filipa Santos and Miguel Moreira. The duo aims to perform music written and improvised by themselves, with an experimental slant and the use of electronics, resulting in a blend of acoustic and electronic sounds, early and modern music, and structured and free-form music.
Their influences and musical imagination range from Portugal’s intangible cultural heritage to jazz and improvised music, resulting in a contemporary approach brimming with unexpected atmospheres.
The duo’s musical imagination is intrinsically linked to Portugal’s intangible cultural heritage, with a progressive and futuristic vision. This imagination is the result of experience gained over the years in the study and exploration of traditional folk music, combined with a desire to create contemporary and free music.
The duo will be performing live from their new album, released in May 2026, NOW SWIM, available on vinyl and cassette.
