Ão presents new single ‘Aren't You Tired’
New album ‘Malandra’ out next week!
In recent years, Ão has established themselves in Belgium and Europe with their enchanting blend of electronica, art pop, saudade, and alternative Latin. Frontwoman Brenda Corijn, who draws from her Mozambican-Portuguese roots, sings in both Portuguese and English. Her warm voice merges with Siebe Chau's southern guitar playing, layered electronics from Jolan Decaestecker's and Bert Peyffers' eclectic percussion work.
Ão’s new single Aren’t You Tired’ is brooding downtempo indietronica, bearing the characteristic nostalgic Ão sound, building towards an ecstatic pulsating finale. It's the only English track on their upcoming album ‘Malandra’.
“‘Aren’t You Tired’ zooms in on two people during a sleepless night, caught in a lingering emotional heat that refuses to fade.” Brenda explains. “It captures the exhaustion of being stuck between old desire and the longing for something calmer.”
Ão will present their new album ‘Malandra’ on a European tour, visiting Germany, Austria, Luxembourg, Switzerland, France, and the Netherlands. At home, their album release show at Ancienne Belgique sold out three months in advance (2,000 tickets). In June, they will perform Best Kept Secret.
