Nancy Vieira

Nancy Vieira is considered one of the most renowned artists currently exploring Cape Verde's immense musical heritage, or Nancy wouldn't have so often been referred to as the heir to Cesária Évora, one of her strongest muses.

There's a lot of Cape Verde in Gente, album released in March of 2024, but there is also that world that only exists in the streets of Lisbon and where you can hear the nuances of Brazil, echoes of so many other Africas and many Europes and Americas. There's morna and samba, fado and batuque, jazz-tinged sophistication and pop-minded adventure. There are people. There is life.
