If in 2024 the Delfins celebrated 40 years of a history rich in successes with a glorious concert at Meo Arena, the band is now preparing to step onto more intimate stages with the “U Outro Lado” tour, dedicated to their lesser-known songs, which kicks off in December, passing through Lisbon, Coimbra, Braga, Porto and Aveiro.
As a preview, Miguel Ângelo and Fernando Cunha are the guests of the most recent edition of Posto Emissor, having also recalled some of the group’s most memorable stories, from its formation to its performance at the 1985 Song Festival, passing through the 90s, where they achieved the biggest successes of their career.
At the beginning of that decade, Miguel Ângelo and Fernando Cunha were also part of the Resistência collective, which popularized acoustic versions of songs by Xutos & Pontapés, Sitiados or, of course, the Delfins themselves, who in this context were successful with ‘Nasce Selvagem’ to the point that the authorship of the song sometimes raised doubts in those who heard and celebrated it.
“The other day, at ETIC”, recalls Miguel Ângelo, referring to the school of technology and artistic creation in Lisbon where he is a teacher, “there was a discussion in the teachers’ room in which they said that ‘Nasce Selvagem’ is from the Resistance. No, it’s from the Delfins!”.
