Rerelease: Bankrol Hayden on making a hit on his death bed

vendredi 4 septembre 2026 • Durée 27:12

Hayden Inacio grew up in Modesto, California — Central Valley, agricultural, working class. His grandfather emigrated from Terceira in the Azores, came through the East Coast, and eventually built a dairy. By the time Hayden came along, the Portuguese was mostly gone: no language, not much culture, just a last name and a grandmother's saying that would end up in a song.

He started rapping at 13. At 16, he was in a near-fatal car crash that killed two people, broke his back, left him on life support for six days, and eventually produced “29” — written from a hospital bed, recorded before he could walk properly, and the song that launched everything. A billion streams, three albums, and a platinum plaque later, he walked into an IPMA pre-party in Providence not really thinking of himself as Portuguese. He left with an award, a cousin pointing at a photo of his avô, and a challenge to record something in the language his mother decided not to teach him.

Rerelease: Richie Campbell finally addresses the elephant in the room

vendredi 28 août 2026 • Durée 38:12

Richie Campbell went to Jamaica at 18 with one contact and no plan. He printed out Patois lyrics at school to learn the language. He learned to compete in Kingston studios before Portugal fully understood what he was building. Speaking with Tony Gonçalves, one idea prevails: Portugal gave him roots, Jamaica gave him meaning.

His new album is called Elephant in the Room. This is the conversation behind it, recorded live on location at the IPMA.

Nuno Seixas music invites you to sit down and share what’s going on with your life

vendredi 21 août 2026 • Durée 20:07

Nuno Seixas, 24, grew up in Sintra and attended the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston. When he came back, he didn’t only bring his music: he brought a bench, a camera and a simple request: sit down and share what’s going on in your life. The project “Everyubody’s Going Throug Something” took him through the streets of New York, Pittsburgh or Los Angeles. Nuno believes that behind every face there is a story that needs to be told.

His grandfather hooked him on Frank Sinatra, he took saxophone lessons at 14 and a friend convinced him to submit his application to Berklee. He shared writing sessions with producers that worked with Ed Sheeran (one of his idols), Nina Nesbitt or Shawn Mendes. This year, he recieved the award for Best Videoclip at the IPMA, a notification he recieved in his pajamas, about to go to bed. Nuno is not looking for fame, instead, he is looking for light, hoping that his music reaches someone that needs it. That might be a simple ambition, but it’s the simplest things that touch us more dearly.

Mackenzie Arromba’s songs may be sad, but she’s full of life

vendredi 14 août 2026 • Durée 19:45

Winning two IPMA awards back to back is reserved only for the best. Mackenzie Arromba has done it at only 25. Even more impressive, her first award was for the very first song she wrote: “hate myself for loving you”. Before the stage, before the photos, before the fame, was a young girl sitting on her bedroom floor turning pain into melody.

Music has been a part of Mackenzie’s life since she was four years old. She recalls how a viewing of “The Phantom of the Opera” turned her into a child who sang everywhere: hockey rinks, grocery stores and, eventually, jazz speakeasies when she was only 7. Songwriting came much later, born after a series of mental health struggles and a relestless search for purpose after leaving university. A chance connection led her to meet Steve Molella, drumme for the canadian band Finger Eleven.

At her core, Mackenzie writes to make people feel less alone — and it shows. She describes herself as a vessel when creating. With the instincts of a true artist and the honesty of someone who has lived through real darkness, Mackenzie Arromba is only getting started.

David Rodrigues is the portuguese culinary creator making culture go viral

vendredi 7 août 2026 • Durée 09:21

He started with a camera, a kitchen, and a mission. Dave, the creator behind “How to Cook Stuff”, has built one of the most-watched Portuguese food and culture channels on the internet by doing something deceptively simple: teaching people how to cook Portuguese food in English, with humor, warmth, and an unshakeable love for his heritage. But what looks effortless online is the result of years of consistency, thick skin, and a clear sense of purpose.

We sat down with Dave at the International Portuguese Music Awards, where he was honored as a representative of Portuguese American culture, a recognition that speaks directly to what he has built. Because this was never just about recipes. It was always about identity.

A neuroscientist turned into a fado star:‌ meet Mariana Arroja

vendredi 31 juillet 2026 • Durée 20:47

A neurocientist walked into a bar in Scotland. She sang fado into an open mic. Everybody loved it. Mariana Arroja’s life changed at that moment: she didn’t plan to become a fadista, but then, the best stories rarely go according to plan.

In this conversation with Tony Gonçalves, Mariana talks about the calçada portuguesa, the stone pavements that dress up every sidewalk and walking path of Portugal’s cities, hidden in plain sight. She explains how looking at them differently, after living abroad for so long, led to a song, then a documentary, then a deep friendship with the stonemasons that are keeping a dissapearing art form alive. Home, inspiration and saudade: all in that order.

Nelson Sobral: A black belt with a guitar, Portuguese at heart

vendredi 24 juillet 2026 • Durée 18:21

Nelson Sobral’s favourite portuguese dish is sopas. The luso-canadian musician never forgets his roots, just take a look at his guitar. Growing up inspired by Kiss, Nelson has become a voice of his own.

Growing up as a first-generation Canadian in Toronto's Little Portugal, Nelson shared how that community shaped him. His mother is from the Azores and his father from the Algarve, so his roots run deep. After some time away, he felt a pull to return to that same neighborhood to raise his own family. He described it as a place where you can still bump into people from your youth: a rare and cherished experience in a big city. It's a testament to the enduring power of community and the comfort of a shared cultural heritage.

Nelson runs a gym named after his firstborn son, Rain. It's a powerful reminder that our passions don't have to be singular, they can coexist and enrich our lives in unexpected ways. He even has a tattoo of Hendrix’s “Voodoo Child” on his arm: a permanent reminder of the power of music.

D.A.M.A. uses their music to protect Portuguese culture

vendredi 17 juillet 2026 • Durée 19:08

In this episode of Heart & Hustle of Portugal: On Location, the trio that make the band D.A.M.A. sit down with Tony Gonçalves on rehearsal day to talk about what it means to bring the heartbeat of Portugal to the diaspora, and why this community feels like something you can't quite explain but immediately recognise.

They talk about five years of diving deep into the musical traditions of Portugal from north to south, choosing two songs that carry the longing of Alentejo and the joy of Minho onto a stage in Providence, and why it is so important to believe in yourself when no one else does.

Ricardo Farias knows that being Portuguese means pride

vendredi 10 juillet 2026 • Durée 13:49

Ricardo Farias was born in the United States. He has spent 26 years giving his career to the Portuguese community. Ricardo built the bridge and stayed on his side. Not because he had to. Because he chose to.

“When I don't feel nervous, I get nervous” he says to Tony Gonçalves, a day before stepping on the stage of the IPMA, his 11th time hosting the International Portuguese Music Awards. Eleven times on that stage and he still feels the weight of it. That is not anxiety. That is respect for the room.

His inspirations are Walt Disney and Fred Rogers. Not names you'd expect from a Portuguese community TV host and MC, but when you think about what both men did, creating connection, building trust, treating an audience like they matter, it is exactly right. “He showed care and compassion at the same time he was teaching them” Ricardo said about Rogers. “That human approach to this type of work was fantastic.” That is also what Ricardo does. For 26 years and counting.

The Manic Boys and Girls Club perform… by not performing

vendredi 3 juillet 2026 • Durée 12:29

We first met Manic Boys and Girls Club backstage at the International Portuguese Music Awards last year. This time, Fernando and Bela weren’t there as performers. They were there as friends, fans, former performers, and part of the community that keeps coming back year after year.

They sat down with Tony Gonçalves to talk about what they’ve been building since our first conversation, why imperfection has become part of the band’s identity, the difference between creating music in the studio and performing live, and why the moments that go sideways are often the ones people remember most.
