Lucibela
Lucibela, born in the infamous Tarrafal, where the Salazar regime imprisoned oppositionists, brought up on the Isles, sings traditional music. While Sara Tavares, Mayra Andrade and Dino d'Santiago flirt with club rhythms - Lucibela, like Wynton Marsalis in jazz, cares for the survival of the sources. She started in the hotel bars of Sal and Boa Vista islands, singing songs of Cesaria, Titina, Bana. Inevitably, like all Kabowerdian artists, she wanted to test herself in Lisbon. For a few years she sang there with the Nos Raiz band (our roots) under the open sky, on the old marina at the central square of the city. Whenever her voice sounded there, the crowd thickened and did not spread until the last song. She has recorded several songs for the album "Conquistador" in 2017 with the band. It was obvious, however, that the talent of this measure needs world-wide exposure. Lucibula was heard by the infallible Jose da Silva, the discoverer of Cesaria and the owner of the record company Lusafrica. He invited her to the studio in Paris and found the most outstanding musicians for the first original album. Soon, Lucibela appeared at festivals and gala concerts of Kabowerdian music alongside the largest - with the exception of the well-known audience Siesta festival - artists of Luzofonia. There is no doubt that it is one of the greatest talents of the decade. The first album - Laco Umbilical - heralds years of enchantment and emotions.
