Biography

Salvador Sobral lived in the USA, Mallorca, and Barcelona, where he studied Jazz at the prestigious Taller de Músics school. His career, defined by curiosity and a search for a unique musical identity, led him from the jazz scene to worldwide acclaim in 2017. That year, he won the Eurovision Song Contest with “Amar pelos Dois,” written by his sister Luísa Sobral, achieving the highest score in the competition’s history.

Following the success of his solo albums “Excuse Me” (2016), “Paris, Lisboa” (2017), and the Latin Grammy-nominated “bpm” (2021), Salvador consolidated his presence in Brazil in 2023 with the tour of his fourth studio album, “TIMBRE.” In 2024, he made history as the first Portuguese artist to perform at the Goya Awards in Spain. The year 2025 was marked by the release of the collaborative album “SÍLVIA & SALVADOR” with Catalan singer Sílvia Pérez Cruz, followed by an international tour that sold out venues across Europe, Latin America, and Japan.

With the chapter alongside Sílvia Pérez Cruz now concluded, Salvador Sobral is currently preparing his fifth studio album, a project that deepens his lifelong bond with Brazilian music, set for release later in 2026. The new record features production by two fundamental figures of the Brazilian music scene: Marcus Preto (artistic director for icons such as Gal Costa and Erasmo Carlos) and Tó Brandileone (member of the collective 5 a Seco and Latin Grammy winner).
