Madredeus is a Portuguese band. Their music combines fado influences with modern folk music. In 1987 Madredeus recorded their first album, Os dias da Madredeus. The first album was recorded in their rehearsal space, a disused abbey in Lisbon. The recording was especially strenuous due to deafening interruptions every 5 minutes from Lisbon's tram service, which ran directly above. In honour of this presence in their every performance, they named themselves after the line's nearby terminus, Madre de Deus (Mother of God), shortened to the vernacular Madredeus.
