You Can’t Win, Charlie Brown is a six-member indie rock band based in Lisbon, Portugal. Over the past 5 years they’ve put out an EP, two albums, and toured all over the country, and beyond! With such an elusive sound and incredible talent, in the fifth episode of The Eliz Went podcast Afonso and Salvador talk the new record Diffraction / Refraction (available on Itunes now), family, shows and what’s to come. Coachella? Maybe, probably… Plus brand new music from Mountain Tamer, and...ITUNES! That's right, the Eliz Went podcast is also now available on Itunes, which means this show is easily downloaded on your phone through the Podcast App, and this is just the beginning my friends.... Next, the world.

Model, musician, and band manager? Lenka Chubukliyeva is a different kind of triple threat, and in this fourth episode of The Eliz Went podcast I sit down with this talented Ukrainian woman who has been a Londoner for more than a decade. She’s currently guiding the up & coming, critically acclaimed duo known as the The Bloom Twins. Where will this new music project take her? How did she get to where she is today? Hear it all from Lenka herself.

In this 3rd episode of The Eliz Went podcast, I talk with Luisa Fidalgo, the writer, actor, and director of The Coffee Shop Series, Psychodrama the Series, and many more projects. From her experience living in New York City, to creating her projects in Lisbon, she's as innovative as they come; a true visionary and still under 30. Already with a series picked up by a major TV station in Portugal, what’s next for Luisa? We talk about her history and, where in store for the future.

In the second episode of The Eliz Went podcast, I sat down for an exclusive interview with a very influential, behind-the-scenes man named Gonçalo Castel Branco. Beginning his unconventional yet innovative career path in sports marketing, then jumping from TV to music festivals, then.... the Obama campaign? That's right. Listen to how he's grown as a producer, an adviser and an over all creative person by always applying experience to everything he does, and never settling for a traditional path. Update: The man cooks! Check out his newest culinary endeavors at 28 A Lisbon.

In this pilot episode of The Eliz Went podcast, I sat down with 3 of the 5 band members from Capitão Fausto, a Portuguese rock group based in Lisbon. We talked about how they got started in music, their stories about performing at huge music festivals, as well as playing small local gigs. Listen to this exclusive interview of this psychedelic band who is on the rise upon release of their new album, Pesar O Sol. Not only was it Domingos, Manuel, and Francisco's first band interview in English, it was my first podcast interview in general, hence the terrible vocals. Have mercy and enjoy. Stay tuned for next week and tell a friend (or 7)...
