Contact Us News FANTCHA EVOKES THE ROMANTIC AND ACOUSTIC SOUND OF CAPE VERDEAN MUSIC IN EL PASO DEBUT AT MUSIC UNDER THE STARS Date: 06.21.02 Contact: Luis Gutierrez, (915)541-4481 Cape Verde, the rugged islands off the West African coast, has produced more than its share of music. The former Portuguese colony is home to Francelina Durão Almeida, also known as Fantcha. A gifted singer, Fantcha blends Portuguese, African and Brazilian music, backed by a five-piece band. Fantcha compensated for the poverty of her youth with the escape that music brought. Her luminous voice and striking beauty helped launch a career in music and soon led her to be considered the rising star of Cape Verde. After hearing her sing, Cesaria Evora, the queen of Cape Verde’s musical community, encouraged her to moved to the United States and helped launch her career as a professional. Now based in New York City and backed by a five-piece touring band, Fantcha adds a sensual element to her interpretation of the romantic and acoustic sound of Cape Verdean Music. Fantcha’s torch-style songs and dance numbers appeal to Brazilian music and dance lovers alike. Her sensual, beautiful voice showcases the African, Cuban and Brazilian influences in her music.

The word is out. The Islands of Cape Verde are a fertile ground for investors. Both individuals and corporations looking for the potential that exists with the special balance of enough development to get things done, but not so much development that there is nothing left to do, are leaving their native countries and settling on the Islands. However, if you want to see your dream come true, you'll have to do more than just show up. Here are some steps that may help you along the way. The Republic of Cape Verde consists of nine inhabited and several uninhabited volcanic islands off the West Coast of Africa. Most are rugged and mountainous; three are flat, desert islands with sand beaches. While the tourist industry is bringing ever growing numbers of tourists, facilities on most islands remain limited.
