French-Spanish singer-songwriter-guitarist and political activist MANU CHAO skyrocketed to fame with his 1998 debut longplayer Clandestino. He also made successful waves with 2 other projects/bands, Manu Negra and Radio Bemba Sound System.

He now has his 6th solo LP out. It’s baptized VIVA TU. You can stream it below.

For one of the tracks, he invited 91-year-old country icon Willie Nelson. Together
they deliver feel-good chipper tune HEAVEN’S BAD DAY. Although the song isn’t
actually a happy one as Chao regrets that nobody, not even Satan visited his heavens today.

Nonetheless, wake up people,
put your hands in the air
and move your pelvis.

French-Spanish singer-songwriter-guitarist and political activist MANU CHAO skyrocketed to fame with his 1998 debut longplayer Clandestino. He also made succesful waves with two other projects/bands, Manu Negra and Radio Bemba Sound System.

It’s been 7 years since the now 63-year-old, multilingual
artist had his most recent album out with La Radiolina.

But about a month ago he shared a brand-new
song, called Vita Tu with the world.

And just now he confirmed the rumours of a new LP, baptized VIVA TU (yep, it was
the title track we got a month ago). It comes out on September 20. More info here.

Along with the announcement comes a 2nd new piece, we can shake are hips smoothly
to (I’ll have a cocktail at the same time). São Paulo Motoboy is a song that celebrates the countless motorcycle couriers in Brazil‘s famous city of millions.

MC: “São Paulo is a breathing beast. And the couriers
are the blood running through its veins, keeping it alive.”
