The alter-ego of multi-instrumentalist Afonso Dorido, Homem em Catarse emerged in the prolific and special 'Barcelos scene' approximately a decade ago.

Currently based in Braga, the founder of the post-rock collective indignu has been traveling the roads and paths of this country since 2013 to showcase his emotive songs, making solo appearances on various national and international stages such as Vodafone Paredes de Coura, NOS Alive, or Dunk!Festival.

Catharsis is a pure need, without restraint… visceral. Doing things differently, experimenting, merging without losing what you are, can also be catharsis. From the inside out, without barriers, natural.

With the fourth album, “Catarse Natural”, Homem em Catarse cements the steps already taken and celebrates his versatility with diversity, seven guest musicians, bringing fresh air to his emotionality.

Bear witness that all of this is catharsis, all of this is natural.
