Hot Air Balloon premiere their new album "Come This Far" live at the Narciso Ferreira Theatre. The concert by the Portuguese-Irish duo with roots in Famalicão, Tiago Machado and Sarah-Jane, marks the launch of the band's second album, a sonic journey made up of shared emotions and intimate moments, which is due to be released digitally on May 30.

The first single, "Come This Far", was released on 24 March and has been featured on several national radio stations. The album consists of seven tracks, almost all in English, with the exception of Saoirse (which means "freedom" in Irish).

Faithful to an organic musical construction, Hot Air Balloon always use the simplicity of the guitar and voice to create rich and emotive layers of sound. Among the songs on the new album are Do It Again, Keep Me Going and Getting Back to Myself, which mark a new phase in the duo's life and artistic career.
