Never heard of you before but you were phenomenal in this!

[@JochenVogel]

Dario has no right to complain about the tuning. It was Igor Stravinsky who said about harpists: "They spend half of their time tuning and the other half playing out of tune." That's where I live. Jokes aside, this was a wonderful performance. You made my day.

[@alexandersh895]

absolutely great. Hope to catch you guys on tour in Mtl someday

[@mattstalker4084]

So rare to hear three guitars being blended and played so accurately and dynamically that they don’t get in one another’s way but rather sound like a single instrument. Magical.

[@marcoocram6389]

Very usual between the best guitar players in Portugal and Spain.

[@tylerpferrari]

Very well said. The driving and grounding force from the guitar rhythm is coupled with such beautiful harmony. Truly something special.. especially starting at 10:12. Gorgeous song...wow

MARO is an incredible artist. Everything she has done is a chef’s kiss. More people need to get to know her. The voice of a Portuguese Tracy Chapman. The songwriting of a Portuguese Joni Mitchell. The sound of a Portuguese Nick Drake.

[@kayavandenbosch]

MARO has been the act that has taught me that you don't have to understand the words in order to understand the music. hortelã has become one of my favorite albums of all time and every time it succeeds to grab me with both arms and warm me up by their undeniable talent, lyricism and tone. Thank you for your music and for teaching me what music is really about.

Nem acredito que foi preciso a Billie eilish partilhar um story disto para eu vir ouvir. Rendi-me e chorei até, muitas muitas emoções. Parabéns!!

[@raulbenevides]

E a Maro fez diversos shows no Brasil no início do ano. Fez shows em São Paulo, Brasília, Rio de Janeiro etc. E neste mês de dezembro fez shows exclusivos em São Paulo. Ela é muito amiga do Pedro Altério. Um grande músico que faz parte da maravilhosa banda Cinco a Seco, se não conhece esta banda, recomendo escutar a música: "Pra você dar o nome". E ela lançou uma canção dela junto com o duo ANAVITÓRIA no canal do Vevo. Ficou muito boa a junção das três cantando.

[@evrenpektas4930]

I DID THE EXACT SAME THING OMGG

[@paulie4450]

Have been into Maro since her Saudade stuff, and in the process have discovered how rich Portuguese music is. Im a sucker for Arabic/Islamic-influenced music since the scales, harmony & nuances are very distinct, so her material was a breath of fresh air. Very rustic yet unconventional which is always refreshing.

[@vp3664]

Try listening to António Zambujo.

[@paulie4450]

@@vp3664 will check it out, thanks

[@tii04]

Try listening to Tamino. I've been looking for something similar since discovering him. This lady kinda fits!

[@lopazio]

This is not arabic/islamic it's "iberian" influenced (Portugal and Spain) an influence by its own right, it's a blend of Arab + African + European Mediterranean

[@TVeRi2511]

[@SidSeth]

probably the most beautiful tiny desk I’ve watched 🫶🏼

[@egacakir]

This is something different. I actually entered to check the sound and exit, but I watched the video from beginning to end in one shot. I haven't heard anything this harmonious, natural and peaceful in a long time. It's the first time I've been so uncomfortable with the ads that come in between, this video made me feel the need to buy KZbin premium :))

I knew her from a song with Jacob Collier, but her own material is fantastic, wow!

Yes! I also discovered her because of that song and then started listening to her own albums... Such a beautiful voice!

In complete agreement. Beautiful.

[@CgustavoJetlag]

I saw Maro playing in Rio, at the Copacabana Theatre, and it was a true blessing. What an artist. Had tears of joy during the concert with such a talented artist with truly emotional lyrics, both in English and Portuguese. Incrível e emocionante!

[@doodingle3728]

If I am ever having a particularly emotional day, I come back to this video. The tone of her voice, the playfulness in the playing from all 3 of them, and the overall energy they perform with is so calming. Thank you for this you beautiful humans!

[@Etienne_Soulsalty]

MARO is distinctive and unique. Any comparison with others in music is limping. You don't compare the Beatles or Elton John to other artists either. MARO is a small miracle from which the music lives. One of the most beautiful wonders of this world named MARO. 😊✌️
