  • Description

    New album by acclaimed Cabo Verdean Elida Almeida.

    In just 2 years, Elida Almeida has made a name for herself performing at world music venues in Europe, Africa and North America. The unknown Elida won huge acclaim for her first album and the song Nta Konsigui (2.7 million views on YouTube), her warm, smooth voice conveying a powerful exultation. On her second album, Kebrada (named for the village where she grew up), she asserts her African identity, seasoning her Cabo Verdean beats - batuque, funaná, coladera and tabanka - with Latino energy. Her fiery temperament and joie de vivre do nothing to undermine the social criticism she expresses in her nostalgic ballads tinged with pop. Already at 24, Elida Almeida shows an impressive maturity, talent and generosity.
