Belgian-based band Ão return with their gorgeous new single ‘Me Condena’, taken from their upcoming album ‘Malandra’, out February 13, 2026. The track follows earlier releases ‘Talvez’ and ‘Sorte’, continuing to build anticipation for what’s shaping up to be a very special record.

Their new single is a song that immediately stopped me in my tracks from the very first listen. I don’t speak Portuguese, yet this one hits directly in the chest. Its emotion translates instinctively and the vocals feel raw and close, while the production builds a hypnotic world of acoustic textures, subtle electronics, and bold percussion. And the accompanying music video by Michiel Venmans only deepen its spell.

Ão is seriously a promising act with killer execution and I can’t wait to hear what else they have in store for us!

‘Me Condena’ is out now on all platforms. ‘Malandra‘ arrives February 13 via Mayway Records.
