Mayra Andrade, the best new generation representative of Cape Verdean music is still on tour, presenting her 2009 album 'Stória, stória'. I was delighted by her performance yesterday in Sintra. Too bad the Brazilian percussionist Zé Luis Nascimento wasn't playing with her... But he will in Zoug, her next stop.
