Blasfemea "Maria"



Blasfemea is a Lisbon, Portugal-based tropical psychedelic electropop band, formed in the early 2000's by Tiago Amaro, Fabio Jevelim (vocals and guitars) and the Lourenço brothers (David and Rui on drums and bass.) Blasfemea's debut album Galaxia Tropicalia is a record comprised of 10 pop songs, all named after girls (including a cover of MJ's "Dirty Diana,") and all destined to be singles. Blasfemea's influences are as wide as their minds. This may sound presumptuous but the truth is that the band shows no shame in loving Madonna and Bob Dylan as Blasfemea's influences are based in all of the artists they feel to be "true" regardless of style. Blasfemea is doing for tropical music what Vampire Weekend is doing for afropop.
