about

PunkSinatra, a Portuguese rock band, was formed in 2003 when João Pedro Almendra (from the band Peste & Sida) joined forces with members of the defunct band Speed Cristal. Their goal was to create a new project featuring original songs in Portuguese. After a year of rehearsals, the band began performing on stages in and around Lisbon, gaining recognition in the underground punk/rock scene over the next two years. Between 2009 and 2011, PunkSinatra recorded the demos "Ataca contra-Ataca. O Monstro Acordou!" (Attack, Counter-Attack. The Monster Has Awoken!) and "À Socapa do Sistema" (Sneaking Past the System), which served as the foundation for their self-titled debut album. The record, produced by António Côrte-Real (UHF and Revolta), brought together the best songs from the band's first decade. The debut album featured contributions from several prominent figures in the Portuguese music scene, including Zé Pedro (Xutos & Pontapés), João Ribas (Tara Perdida and Censurados), and the duo Gel and Vasco (from Homens da Luta). The current lineup of PunkSinatra is: João Pedro Almendra - Vocals David Nolasco - Guitar Guilherme Santos - Guitar and Vocals Luís Lobão - Drums and Backing Vocals João Pinto - Bass User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
