Photo of Covers acústicos Covers acústicos "Our interaction with customers and our varied repertoire adjusted to the audience, put the customers in euphoria dancing and having an excellent night of fun" Translated from Portuguese Based in Braga (17 miles from Ponte de Lima) 10th August 2026 Berto, Alameda parque, Taipas - Animação em esplanada Photo of The Tiny Musician The Tiny Musician "What an amazing talent Joana has. We booked her to play as our guests arrived before the wedding ceremony and then as I walked down the aisle, and she did such a beautiful job. Her talent is unbelievable and the music was absolutely perfect for the ceremony. She was also probably the easiest supplier from our entire wedding to deal with! She is the loveliest person, so friendly and made everything incredibly easy from start to finish. Joana played such an important part in one of the biggest moments of our day and we couldn’t have chosen anyone better. Thank you so much, Joana, for being such a special part of our wedding. I couldn’t recommend The Tiny Musician enough!"
