Carlos Manuel Moutinho Paiva dos Santos Duarte (born 20 December 1966), known professionally as Camané, is a Portuguese fado singer.

Career

He started gaining recognition in Portugal in 1979 after winning the 'Grande Noite do Fado' (Great Fado Night).[citation needed] After this first step, he continued to consistently work toward commercial success with critically well-received albums and a concert tour that touched upon both large and small venues, including 'Casas de Fado' (fado clubs) in Lisbon.

He has released six million-selling albums: Uma Noite de Fados (1995), Na Linha da Vida (1998) marking the beginning of three records produced by José Mário Branco,[1] Esta Coisa da Alma (2000), Pelo Dia Dentro (2001), Como sempre... Como dantes (live in 2003), and Sempre De Mim (2008). These have been released in several European and Asian countries.

Personal life

Camané was married to Aldina Duarte, also a fado singer.
