May 09, 2023
Mimicat was presented to the world in 2014, with her first studio album “For You”, but she’s been recording in studios since she was 9 years old. Performer, singer, and songwriter, Mimicat is inspired by the greatest voices in black music, and in love by the pop hits playing on the radio and MTV when growing up.
She has become a combination of a deep soulful voice with catchy melodies, expressed by a “sassy-badass” stage charisma. Both of her studio albums “For You” (2014) and “Back In Town” (2017) were released by Sony Music, and 2023 will be the year of a new studio album, combining all these influences that built her.
As a first sample she shows “Ai Coração”, a song which currently competed at the Portuguese Festival da Canção 2023 selecting the artist who will represent Portugal at the Eurovision Song Contact the same year. She won.
“Ai Coração” has been written by Mimicat (Marisa Mena, her birth name) and co-produced with Twins (Luis Pereira). Here also inspired by the great voices of the Portuguese music scene, mixed in a perfect cocktail of Mediterranean rhythms and a fun and burlesque atmosphere, never forgetting to emphasize that she is a Proud Portuguese woman.
We represent this song in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
