For fans of The Shins, or Frank Turner, Against Me!, Mumford and Sons and Bob Dylan, there is the joy of We Bless This Mess. The 5-piece band from Porto is in fact a solo project by Nelson Graf Reis, that takes the punk approach to folk music and live performances, or, equally, that plays punk songs according to the 'less is more' philosophy. We Bless This Mess is all about expressing positivity and carpe diem: "We breathe, we are alive. This is the greatest gift."
