Mayra Andrade
Musiker - Jazz
http://www.mayra-andrade.com

Mayra Andrade was born in Cuba in 1985, spent her earliest years in Cape Verde and since the ‘90s she has lived in several places, including Senegal, Angola and Germany. In 2001, while still a teenager, she won the gold medal at the French-speaking “Jeux de la francophonie” in Ottawa, Canada. “I’ve spoken French since I was six years old. It’s like a third language to me.” She finally touched down in Paris, drawn to the capital city’s cosmopolitan blend of many different cultures. It proved to be the ideal location to find her path, both personally and musically.

“More than a singer from Cape Verde, I’m a singer, period. Music has always been a part of me. If I feel like mixing Cape Verde songs with other sounds and influences, I believe I’m allowed to do that.” She is an entirely self-taught musician who writes on the guitar, free of the judgment and prejudice that can come with academic formulas and “logical” harmonies. Like singer-guitarist Tcheka, Mayra Andrade searches for her own music, fully immersed in the stylistic diversity of the Cape Verde islands. The two artists, along with a few others, have been referred to as the “Pantera generation,” named after a young composer who died in 2001; his songs had a gentle but profound effect on Cape Verdean music. Andrade covered four of his songs on “Navega.”

She started working on this album in the autumn of 2008, following a long series of performances. Mayra Andrade is a headstrong woman who wants to be free to go wherever she wishes. “Singing is practically sacred to me!” she claims, which probably explains why, as a young artist, she took the time to perfect her musical performances onstage, where her heart and soul shine. That’s where audiences discovered her and “specialists” eventually caught wind of her fantastic new talent. It’s also where she plans to bring her second album to life.
