Nancy Vieira - Portal do Município de Vila Nova de Famalicão - Portugal

Devesa Park | 19h00

Free admission

There are many people on this “Gente”, an album that avoids the easy path of technological touches of ‘modernity’ and prefers, in its apparent formal traditionalism, to promote the particular magic that only happens when people from different walks of life meet in the same space to share, play and sing their different stories. There's a lot of Cape Verde in this disc, or Nancy wouldn't have been singled out so many times as the heir to Cesária Évora. In Gente you'll also find 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.
