Charles Sangnoir is an artist from Portugal, currently living in the south of France. He has played more than 300 concerts across cities like Lisbon, Oporto, Paris, London, Madrid or Vigo. He has featured as host pianist in 2 Portuguese tv shows over 300+ episodes, and dedicates himself as well to painting, gastronomy and the esoteric arts. As a producer, he has overseen the making of over 30 records. He composes as well for radio, tv and cinema and has recently won the 48h film Festival prize for best song in France.

‘Cruz Credo’ is La Chanson Noire’s 5th studio album: Recorded between Lisbon and Montpellier, and mastered in London by Jon Astley (The Who, Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones), the new record refines the gothic mood and dark humor which define Charles Sangnoir’s work. Incorporating elements as diverse as trap, electro, metal or cabaret, as well as the usual choice of luxury guest artists, ‘Cruz Credo’ – out exactly ten years after ‘musica para os mortos’, it’s debut album – is possibly the most striking record of La Chanson Noire’s career.
