One of the most charming moments in one of Wes Anderson's most idiosyncratic films, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, was Seu Jorge's seafaring acoustic reworkings of Bowie hits in Portuguese.

The Brazilian musician's cameo was so popular that the covers were released as an album in 2005 and now, more than a decade later, he is going on tour with them.

Seu Jorge will play dates across the US and Canada this autumn, with images from the film projected on screens shaped like sail boats behind him.
