10 000 Russos ao vivo no Barreiro

Diogo

To cap off an intense year of programming, on the 20th of this month we'll be welcoming 10 000 Russos to Gasoline. Currently one of the most interesting and international bands Portuguese bands active today (something we're easily able to say without much doubt or exaggeration), the Porto band has just returned to Portugal following a tour of Mexico (!) in September and an European tour with over 50 stops in October and November (!!).

Starting off the evening will be Miguel Abras, the "gutter poet" we saw in great form in OUT.FEST's opening concert as the special guest in the Gabriel Ferrandini + Camerata Musical do Barreiro performance, and the after party will be guided by Xamã Roque, one of Barreiro's finest musical disseminators.

Tickets are already available at the Barreiro Tourism Office and at Locomotiva at the price of 5€ (2,5€ for under 25 yrs old). As usual, you can also make a reservation by emailing info@outra.pt.

Join us in celebrating a 2019 full of great concerts and getting pumped up for what comes next!

Welcome to Cidade Som

Diogo

Today we unveil the Cidade Som (Sound City) website, where we keep all of the sounds gathered by OUT.RA throughout the course of the many field recording and sound documentation projects we've developed in Barreiro since 2012.

The Mata Nacional da Machada (Machada Woods), the old Industrial Area, the Avenida da Praia (Beach Avenue) and Alburrica are some of the places you can hear on the website, as well as other sounds well known to those living in Barreiro such as the EMEF workshop siren, the bell of the Nª Srª do Rosário church, the Quinta do Braamcamp and the municipal markets, and also the many "hidden" sounds of the structures that support the public water network in Barreiro, among many others.

You can also follow Cidade Som on Facebook to keep in touch with the project and be the first to know about the new sounds we will release on our website over time.

Enjoy!
