A basement on the island of Madeira was where a group of friends decided to combine their love of music and form NAPA.
The foundations of the band were based on the energy they derived from the Arctic Monkeys and Red Hot Chilli Peppers, the melodies of the Beatles and the sensibility of Caetano Veloso and Tom Jobim.
In 2019, the band recorded their first album Senso Comum , which introduced audiences to their infectious melodies and melancholic spirit. 2023’s Logo Se Vê was their second LP, this time showcasing a more mature sound. After completing their first national tour in 2024, NAPA are set to release their third album in late 2025
The band is made up of Guilherme Gomes, Lourenço Gomes, Francisco Sousa, Diogo Góis and João Rodrigues.
