Uma das bandas de maior destaque da cena musical brasileira. 🔥
The group Cordel do Fogo Encantado launches the album Viagem Ao Coração do Sol (Journey To The Sun’s Heart). Their fourth work brings songs that were kept during the pause and compositions born of the reunion of Lirinha (voice and tambourine), Clayton Barros (guitar and voice), Emerson Calado (percussion and voice) and Rafa Almeida (percussion and voice). Because of the awaited return of Cordel, the five members can’t wait to meet the public to introduce them to the new songs.
There are 13 tracks that follow the tradition of double titles of the cordel literature, that dialogues with human feelings through the story of five characters that follow paths, sometimes mysterious and magical, in the search of the daughter of the wind, called Freedom. Recorded in the El Rocha studio in São Paulo and in the Totem studio in Fortaleza, the album is a follow up of the band’s creative work. “The mystic that involves the Cordel kept itself suspended during these eight years. Initially, we were a group of four, the name of the band was the title of a spectacle. In our first album we told the story of the Fogo Encantado (Enchanted Fire). After that we talked about a Clown from a Futureless Circus, a metaphor for the human existence. And, at last, in the Transfiguração (Transfiguration) album tour we introduced a scenario that gathers itself for a type of pause, something quite relevant for the moment in which it happened, even though it wasn’t planned”, said the lead singer. “Therefore, for the return of the group, elements that continue the narrative of the third album will be presented, “now is the moment to get in the sun, flourish, walk towards the light, get out from inside the land, rip the cocoon in the search of Freedom”, Lirinha completes.
The cover and booklet, that was first launched in CD, were developed by the design studio Savia Design&Branding and brings different elements like the light, the crack of dawn, the wind and the optimism represented in the form of a character, once these symbols show up throughout the album. “We created a figure of light, a persona of movement, that is born of the land like a breath of optimism and color”, Lucas Bacic, the creative director alongside Lucas Falcão comments.
