"Pan-Atlantic soul from Cape Verde"
Vocalist Mayra Andrade comes from Cape Verde, the musically rich Atlantic archipelago that spawned the career of Cesaria Evora--and the buzz around this young singer's career recalls the one that developed when Evora came on the scene. She sings in Portuguese, French, and Cape Verdean creole, but there's a universal language of charisma in this young singer's smoky voice, cool confidence, and ability to deliver a killer hook. There are hints of Cuba, West Africa, and Paris in Andrade's musical mix, for those are all places where she's lived and learned. Mayra Andrade is a new world music sensation, and a perfect way to kick off a long summer weekend night.
