Margarida Campelo is a Portuguese singer and songwriter who is about to release her second album, titled "Música de Elevador." The album will be presented in October at the Centro Cultural de Belém, in Lisbon. The artist was invited to BLITZ's podcast, which returned after a brief break at Posto Emissor.

Margarida is the daughter of singer Isabel Campelo and sound engineer Jorge Barata. From an early age, music was part of her life, and the artist revealed that her mother was known as Leopoldina. Margarida recounted that she would sing the phrase "Welcome to the enchanted world..." and that she would arrive at school proud of statements like "Do you know who sings this? It's me!"

In addition to her career as a performer and songwriter, Margarida Campelo studied jazz and currently teaches this discipline. The artist also has experience in the Festival da Canção, the music competition that selects Portugal's representative for Eurovision.
