The portuguese singer/songwriter Helena Kendall is looking for help with the costs towards the recording of her first album.

The singer/songwriter Helena Kendall is 22 years old and lives in Porto. In the last few years she authored a handfull of songs in portuguese, and with a smile on her face and a guitar on her lap she wants to show them to the world. 

A year after participating on Festival da Canção (the portuguese contest for Eurovision Festival) with a song written by João Só she's ready for her studio premiere. 

The search for the location and participating artists fell upon her home city. The final choice are Estúdio Elétrico, and a tight group of well-known portuguese musicians, all with decades of experience on their backs.

The quality is assured, the musicians are ready, the expectation is huge, and so is the willpower... But it's not enough.

This campaign was created as to cover the expenses of recording, releasing, and promoting the album. Such will not be possible without the good will and generosity of everyone. This important step in her career depends on the success of this campaign. The rewards are plenty and the gratitutde is imense.

About the author

Helena Kendall is a 22 years old singer/songwriter that, through her voice and guitar, tells her story, and the ones of those around her. She writes in portuguese and composes by intuition, exactly the way she learned how to play. Her slightly harsh voice, the simplicity and her smile are her identity.

She studies Social Education, and participates in several social and musical projects. In them she finds inspiration for her songs.

She founded and gave voice to the pop-folk band Os Kendall during two years.

She sang "Rancho Fundo" with Miguel Araújo, and in February of 2017 she was one of the musicians chosen to participate in the Festival da Canção, with a song written by João Só.

She has performed live at the Casa da Música bar, and at TedX Matosinhos, among other stages.

She has written over 15 songs, which she performs live, with the help of a group of experienced musicians.

    Sonho

    Bom dia
    Eu sou o Rui Pedro Ribeiro, tenho 23 anos, sou da milheirós e tenho uma doença genética, chamada de Distrofia Muscular de Duchenne. que não tem cura. Sou atualmente atleta federado do FC Porto desde 2016 na modalidade de boccia.Estou a tirar a licenciatura em Contabilidade e Administração no ISCAP. Estou atualmente a fazer uma campanha no PPL, a pedir ajuda para a compra e adaptação de uma casa adaptada às minhas necessidades. Na minha casa atual, encontro-me sem espaço, uma vez que na passagem para o meu quarto bato imensas vezes com os pés na porta, porque é estreita. Não consigo ter um quarto de banho adaptado, para ir à casa de banho a situação é pior, tenho de ficar com a cadeira no corredor e a minha mãe tem de pegar em mim ao colo, também bato com os pés na porta, e já me magoei várias vezes. https://ppl.pt/causas/ruipedro , pode partilhar pf!?E se poderem apoiar nem que seja com um 1€, pq se muitos apoiarem com um pequeno valor facilmente se junta muito!! Obrigado! abraço

    Caros apoiantes,
    Só agora encontro palavras para agradecer tamanha generosidade! Confesso que houve momentos em que temi não conseguir concretizar este sonho por falta de meios mas a verdade é que quando se quer muito uma coisa não se desiste. Quero agradecer a cada um pelo apoio, interesse, preocupação e sobretudo por acreditarem no meu talento e em mim. Prometo não vos desiludir e em breve haverá novidades sobre as gravações e sobre as recompensas!
    Do fundo do coração, OBRIGADA!
    Helena
