She is the best that ever happend to us. A new and fresh way of performing these old songs. She is an animal on stage. A real artist. I love her.....I really do.

Es hermosa y canta muy bien. Felicitacions a cabo verde por dar a lura y Cesaria.

Vitor Santos, Porto
as Lura said, the cape-verdian people, specially, the women are considerer the most beautiful peole in the world.They are the real "creoule" people. I intend to go to S. Vicente and St. Antão this year to listen the funana, the coladera, to eat the cachupa and to drink the wine from the Fogo.And also to dance the coladera and the mornas with the cabo-verdian girls.Good Luck Lura

Lura, your voice is breathtaking. Everytime I hear your track 'Na'ri na it dazzles me - it is so sensual and romantic! you do not have to be from the lusophone countries to appreciate your beautiful music. I am going to visit Cape Verde this year and hope to see you in concert. Desejo-te muita sorte, nossa bella caboverdiana!

Virgílio Brandão, Lisbon
Lura is an amazing singer. A force of nature (one must see her Live!). In her voice i can find the soul of Cabo Verde.

200 lucky folk at Exeter Phoenix just had the joy of drinking in the musicality and sensuality of Lura before she returns to Lisbon. 'I was there!'- fabulous.

Lura it´s a great singer, she lives the music has a free bird flying truh this unlimeted skys she transmited pace and armony in her songs, who brings whit her, her hometown in every single letter of her songs. Thats what a nomine should look like, not only by the music but also by the messenge that the music transmit to the persons. Good luck Lura.

It was a great gig, one of the most enjoyable at WOMAD this year. I'll be going to the gig at St Georges Bristol on the 20th Nov. If you are interested the other 7 gigs in the tour, they are listed at http://www.luratour.co.uk/

JP, Lisbon
As a capeverdean i'm trully greatfull for her work, for showing our culture to the world and making the memory of Orlando Pantera, even more, alive in our hearts.

hearing and seeing Lura this month at the Sage, Gateshead this month is going to be very spesial. I left when I was 3 and have returned only once with my daughter 25 years later but never to late as we say. Expect a few very happy tears.

Edmond Ng, Bristol
I saw Lura at the University of Valladolid (Spain) in Aug 05. She and her band were absolutely fantastic. I bought her CD & DVD - Di Korpo Ku Alma - after the gig and got her autography too. She was so nice. My friend and I then went on a road trip in La Rioja and we had Lura on in the background all the way. She worked so hard for us and we enjoyed every moment of it. Going to see her again in London at the Purcell Room. DON'T MISS her UK tour!!

Victor Lewis, London
Alluring Lura...my new dream companion for my journeys into the emotional dreamscapes that music from lusophone countries bring. The percussion and rhythm on the new record especially Batuku quickened my blood and gave me butterflies of longing. I just heard it live on here and I am I will come back to it again and again as long as it is on this page.

Brigitte Boldy London
Heard the music of Dr Mostafa Shams and Tigran Alexanian at Womad Festival, the sounds were magical, a great duet both masters of their instruments. Hope to see more of them again.

Lyngdoh,India

Fines, Tring, Herts
Great music, full of energy, we really enjoyed each song!

Ian Southworth, Weybridge, Surrey
Heard Lura on Radio 3, what a fantastic set!! Can I buy a CD anywhere in UK? Any other UK gigS? Will they be at neaxt years WOMAD? If so send me a ticket now!

Kate, Hampshire
Just saw Lura at WOMAD. No surprise her CD was sold out within minutes at the festival - have just ordered one online. You MUST see her!

Charles, Kinross
Excellent performace. I am a big fan of African music, Angelique Kidjo, Youssou N'Dour and Hugh Masekela. Lura will be the next port of call in Cape Verde islands. Pity the new release won't be on vinyl! Quality on analogue R3 was superb too.
