Music trio

CHOCOS is a trio that plays their hearts out: they approach music from a place of love and discovery, moving seamlessly through different genres and combining the energy of rock, the grooves of Indie and the freedom of jazz. Their concerts are raw and exciting, driven by interaction, self-expression and a healthy dose of Portuguese charm. In July 2023, the trio toured Portugal, where they performed across the country and recorded their first album, with some of the most important musicians of the Portuguese creative world: João Mortágua, Eduardo Cardinho and Iúri Oliveira.
