Music like Dead Combo

Dead Combo are a Portuguese band, consisting of Tó Trips and Pedro Gonçalves. Dead Combo play mostly instrumental music with a wide range of influences, such as Latin American music, Spaghetti Western film soundtracks, fado, African music, blues, rock, and others.

Dead Combo are due to disband in 2021, following their farewell tour.

Dead Combo were formed in 2003 after Tó Trips and Pedro Gonçalves got an invitation from Henrique Amaro, from the Portuguese radio station Antena 3, to record the track “Paredes Ambience” for an homage album to the late Portuguese guitar player Carlos Paredes, called Movimentos Perpétuos: Música para Carlos Paredes.

Their debut album Vol. I was released in 2004. It was followed by Vol. II - Quando a Alma não é Pequena in 2006. Both albums were released through their own newly founded publishing company Dead & Company, in partnership with Universal Records Portugal.
