After a long illness, Portuguese singer Mísia passed away in Lisbon on 27 July at the age of 69. With her cross-genre interpretation of fado, Mísia helped the genre, which has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2011, to constantly renew itself and repeatedly caused a stir with her albums. She has worked with musicians such as Iggy Pop and Ute Lemper and received the prestigious German Record Critics' Award for her penultimate album "Pura Vida (Banda Sonora)" from 2019.
Her last album "Animal Sentimental", also released on Galileo Music, was finally released in April 2022 on CD and for the first time on LP.
