Café Concerto
Artist Residencies Showcases

The showcases of the artist residencies are one of the major original moments of Westway, as they reveal to the public the outcome of a unique creative process originating in Guimarães. After a week at the Candoso Creation Center – a time and space for total freedom in creation – the moment arrives to discover the final result of this highly artistic and cultural intersection. It is an incredible experience that takes place within the festival, which has already led to lasting connections that resulted in ongoing projects. With an inexhaustible and distinguishing energy generated by Westway in the LAB aspect, the showcases of the artist residencies are always truly surprising.

Nobre (PT)
Nobre

Born in Angola, he moved to Portugal at a very young age and grew up in the areas of Algueirão Mem-Martins, Cacém, and Queluz. He represents the experiences of a young adult in everyday life with authenticity. Emerging in urban music, his lyrics are reflections of real stories, shaped by challenges, dreams, and the strength of those who never give up.

Grimsøn (DE)
Grimsøn

After beginning in New York’s underground scene, 22 year old Swedish/American songwriter Aiden Berglund made his way to Berlin in the midst of the pandemic and began recording as GrimsØn, shifting his style into Burton-esque Gothic rock accompanied by sweet harmonies and baroque pop arrangements. He incorporates an intricate multimedia element into the world of his songs, pulling from his work as a character designer and animator, which includes the video for Weyes Blood’s “It’s Not Just Me, It’s Everybody” and visuals for Jose Gonzales, Sharon Van Etten, and more.

 GrimsØn’s latest single “I Made My Therapist Cry Today” was released through Berlin indie label Duchess Box early 2025.
