Tara Perdida

The iconic force of Portuguese punk rock returns to Rock in Rio Lisboa.

Twenty years after their last appearance, Tara Perdida return to the City of Rock as if greeting it for the very first time. On 21 June, the band takes over the Super Bock Stage to celebrate their undeniable impact, their legacy and their role as one of the most influential names in Portuguese alternative music.

Formed in 1995 by João Ribas, Ruka and Ganso, Tara Perdida brought a rebellious, unapologetic attitude to punk rock in Portugal. Their debut album Tara Perdida (1996) immediately placed them at the forefront of the national alternative scene.

In 2002, the album É Assim propelled the band to new heights, featuring standout singles such as Desalinhado and Nasci Hoje, tracks that remain essential to fans and continue to resonate across generations. In 2013 they released Dono do Mundo, home to songs like O Que É que Eu Faço Aqui and Lisboa, the latter featuring a memorable collaboration with Tim (Xutos & Pontapés), creating one of the most iconic moments in their history.

Now celebrating 30 years of career, Tara Perdida continue to bring youthful spirit, raw energy and an unmistakable stage presence. On 21 June, the Super Bock Stage will come alive with nostalgia, rebellion and the timeless anthems that defined the youth of the 2000s.
