Lambchop live in Viseu

Experience Lambchop live on November 18th

Lambchop, the American music project led by Kurt Wagner, will perform at Teatro Viriato in Viseu, Portugal on November 18, 2026. Lambchop’s sound is often described as slowcore, incorporating elements of country, jazz, and electronic music. Characterized by Wagner’s distinct, often understated vocals and a reliance on layered instrumentation – including strings, horns, and subtle electronic textures – their music frequently explores themes of loneliness, memory, and Americana. The project began in the early 1990s and has evolved through numerous personnel changes while maintaining Wagner’s core artistic vision.

Teatro Viriato opened in 2008 following a lengthy construction period intended to provide Viseu with a modern performing arts facility. Designed by architect Manuel Aires Mateus, the theatre is notable for its minimalist concrete exterior and adaptable interior spaces. It serves as a multi-purpose venue hosting a diverse program of performances including theatre, dance, opera, classical music concerts and contemporary music events. The theatre's main auditorium has a capacity of approximately 750 seats and is designed to offer excellent acoustics and sightlines.
