Pedro Amendoeira was born in Santarém on June 12, 1972. Since he was young, he has always had a taste for musicAt the age of 15 he entered the conservatory and attended the classical guitar course for 3 years. His interest in fado arose simultaneously with that of his sister Joana Amendoeira. He then began as a fado musician, accompanying fado singers from Ribatejo on several nights, playing bass guitar.The taste for the Portuguese guitar began at the age of 25, as playing a purely fado instrument was inevitable. He started playing at fado nights, a little everywhere, mentioning the great drivers of his evolution in the Portuguese guitar, the two musicians from the region: Gilberto Silva and Carlos Velez. Through the latter's hand he was invited to play for Nuno da Câmara Pereira, where he remained for a few years, then the invitation to play with Mariza appeared.He has accompanied names such as Maria da Nazaré, Cidália Moreira, Celeste Rodrigues, Camané, Maria Amélia Proença, Fernando Maurício, Cristina Branco, Maria da Fé, Anita Guerreiro, among others and of course always accompanying Joana Amendoeira. With her, he recorded his first album in 2004 live in S. Luiz, participating in all record records since then.
