Being from Cape Verde perhaps accounts for Nancy Vieira’s inborn music talent. There is no hate, no rage, no revolt in her voice. Only softness, subtlety, rhythm, firmness, feeling and interpretation. Cape Verde is inspiration, cause and effect in her music. Vieira makes her debut with World Village with her third album, Lus. With the traditional Cape Verde rhythms as a starting point, Nancy Vieira reaches beyond the borders of her islands and she ties bonds with sounds from other parts of the world, such as especially South America.
