Elida Almeida officially presents her album 'SPEDJU' at Lisbon's Coliseu Club, in a concert celebrating motherhood, identity and contemporary Cape Verdean music.

Full details

Synopsis The acclaimed Cape Verdean artist Elida Almeida returns to Lisbon's stages for the official presentation of her latest work, “SPEDJU”. On this album, Elida Almeida dives into a deeply intimate and transformative dimension of her life: the experience of motherhood. Conceived during the gestation of her daughter, the album is born as a space for personal, emotional and artistic reflection, where each song works as a mirror of the changes experienced by the artist in her body, mind and way of seeing the world. Pregnancy brought with it a new awareness of time, vulnerability, strength and the meaning of being a woman. The mirror then ceases to be just a physical object and becomes a symbol of recognition and discovery. By observing the real transformations of her body, Elida Almeida also confronts deep inner changes, emotional maturity, the responsibility of motherhood and the ancestral bond between mothers and children. “SPEDJU” translates this constant dialogue between identity and transformation. The album covers universal emotions of fear, courage, love, doubt, hope and rebirth that go beyond her individual experience and resonate with the lives of so many women and mothers around the world. The work thus becomes a tribute to motherhood as a creative, silent and revolutionary force. Musically, Elida Almeida maintains her contemporary signature rooted in Cape Verdean sounds, but presents a more introspective and sensitive register, without losing the vibrant energy that characterises her career. Her compositions reflect the duality between fragility and power, intimacy and celebration, in an artistic narrative that brings the public closer to the most human dimension of the singer-songwriter. “SPEDJU” is a testimony of transformation. A mirror where Elida Almeida sees herself as a woman, artist and mother, and where each person can also recognise parts of themselves, their changes, affections and life stories. In the new show, Elida Almeida invites the audience on an intimate and vibrant journey through the multiple reflections of identity, memory, roots and Cape Verdean contemporaneity. “SPEDJU” emerges as an artistic and emotional mirror, where the singer reveals new sounds, creative maturity and a deep connection between tradition and modernity. Recognised for her contagious energy on stage and the unique fusion of rhythms, batuque, funaná and global influences, Elida Almeida promises an intense, celebratory concert full of emotion. Live, the new songs gain even more strength, in a meeting marked by authenticity and the powerful presence of the artist. Coliseu Club, in Lisbon, on 5 December 2026, will host a special night celebrating contemporary Cape Verdean music and the international career of one of the most striking new-generation voices. Supplementary Notes This show takes place in the smallest room of the Coliseu dos Recreios: Coliseu Club. Estimated duration of the event: 1h30min. This duration may change.

Show original (Portuguese)

Sinopse A já consagrada artista cabo-verdiana, Elida Almeida regressa aos palcos de Lisboa para a apresentação oficial do seu mais recente trabalho, “SPEDJU”. Neste disco, Elida Almeida mergulha numa dimensão profundamente íntima e transformadora da sua vida, a experiência da maternidade. Concebido durante o período de gestação da sua filha, o disco nasce como um espaço de reflexão pessoal, emocional e artística, onde cada canção funciona como um espelho das mudanças vividas pela artista no corpo, na mente e na forma de olhar o mundo. A gravidez trouxe consigo uma nova consciência sobre o tempo, a vulnerabilidade, a força e o significado de ser mulher. O espelho deixa então de ser apenas um objeto físico para se tornar símbolo de reconhecimento e descoberta. Ao observar as transformações reais do seu corpo, Elida Almeida confronta-se também com mudanças interiores profundas, o amadurecimento emocional, a responsabilidade da maternidade e a ligação ancestral entre mães e filhos. “SPEDJU” traduz esse diálogo constante entre identidade e transformação. O disco percorre emoções universais de medo, coragem, amor, dúvida, esperança e renascimento que ultrapassam a experiência individual da própria e encontram eco na vivência de tantas mulheres e mães em diferentes partes do mundo. A obra transforma-se assim numa homenagem à maternidade enquanto força criadora, silenciosa e revolucionária. Musicalmente, Elida Almeida mantém a sua assinatura contemporânea enraizada nas sonoridades cabo-verdianas, mas apresenta um registo mais introspetivo e sensível, sem perder a energia vibrante que caracteriza o seu percurso. As suas composições refletem a dualidade entre fragilidade e poder, intimidade e celebração, numa narrativa artística que aproxima o público da dimensão mais humana da cantautora. “SPEDJU” é um testemunho de transformação. Um espelho onde Elida Almeida se vê enquanto mulher, artista e mãe e onde cada pessoa poderá igualmente reconhecer partes de si própria, das suas mudanças, afetos e histórias de vida. No novo espetáculo, Elida Almeida convida o público a uma viagem íntima e vibrante pelas múltiplas reflexões da identidade, da memória, das raízes e da contemporaneidade cabo-verdiana. “SPEDJU” surge como um espelho artístico e emocional, onde a cantora revela novas sonoridades, maturidade criativa e uma ligação profunda entre tradição e modernidade. Reconhecida pela sua energia contagiante em palco e pela fusão singular de ritmos, batuque, funaná, e influências globais, Elida Almeida promete um concerto intenso, celebrativo e cheio de emoção. Ao vivo, as novas canções ganham ainda mais força, num encontro marcado pela autenticidade, e pela poderosa presença da artista. O Coliseu Club, em Lisboa, no dia 5 de dezembro de 2026, será palco de numa noite especial que celebra a música cabo-verdiana contemporânea e o percurso internacional de uma das suas vozes mais marcantes da nova geração.
