ASSOL GARCIA is a singer from Cabo Verde, an archipelago nation off the coast of West Africa that is home to rich Afro-Portuguese music traditions. She was born in 1989 on the island of Fogo, raised in the shadows of the island’s frequently erupting active volcano. Now based in Boston, Garcia draws on Cabo Verdean styles such as morna and coladeira, genres that were made famous around the world through the work of the late Cesária Evora.
Garcia’s debut album, "Alma di Minino" (Soul of a Child), released in November 2015, garnered critical acclaim and multiple nominations at the 2017 Cabo Verde Music Awards, winning her the title of Best New Artist.
