She was born in Senegal, but Maria de Barros’ creative and ancestral home is nearby Cabo Verde — the coastal islands which are cultural crossroads of the three continents bordering the Atlantic. The islands are an historic melting pot of African, Argentinean, Portuguese, and Cuban music, popularized worldwide by de Barros’ famous godmother, Cesaria Evora.

On this extraordinary debut album, de Barros gives traditional Cabo Verdean music a sensuous, effervescently fresh interpretation, with plaintive mornas, coladeiras, and rhythmic, upbeat boleros and sambas drenched as deeply by her rich, soulful voice as her islands are by the sun and sea.
