Show Description
“Fantcha pulls out all stops in her long-awaited return. The Cape Verdean songstress called upon a cast of All-Star musicians to help craft her pensive and passionate, tender and funky album Amor, Mar e Musica, whose styles are as varied as the cultures in her archipelago nation.”-John Oseid, Conde Nast Traveler
“Fantcha, a talented…Cape Verdean beauty based in New York City, is a musical ambassador from the African archipelago nation of Cape Verde.”
-Afropop Worldwide
A charismatic performer, Fantcha, developed her own, unique musical style with African, Cuban and Portugese inflections. The mornas and coladeiras she sings are the soulful, blues-like songs, like the fado of Portugal, that are about lost love and the trials of life. Her rich, sensuous voice lends itself beautifully to love songs and danceable tunes alike and, has audiences listening raptly or on their feet dancing.
Fantcha moved from Cape Verde and now makes her home in New York. Her music has continued to evolve through several albums. This concert launches Amor Mar e Musica, her latest release and the most captivating album to date.
