Remo Fernandes, 73, has announced his retirement from live concerts after health problems affected his mobility, voice and finger movement. He made the announcement during a Goa Day celebration in Hounslow, UK, on August 3, performing seated for nearly an hour and receiving a standing ovation. The two reports differ on the cause of his mild stroke. Times Now News says Fernandes suffered it after COVID-19, while Hindustan Times quotes him linking it to his third COVID vaccine. Both report that he later developed vertigo and needed surgery after a fall. Fernandes said these problems made playing the guitar and flute difficult. His career includes independent music and songs such as Humma Humma, Maria Pitache and Ya Ya Maya Ya.
