Lucibela
Cabo Verde
Lucibela Freitas Dos Santos, known professionally as Lucibela, is a celebrated singer from Cape Verde who has become a leading voice in morna and coladera. Born in 1986 on the island of São Nicolau, she initially found her footing performing for tourists in Sal and Boa Vista before moving to Praia, where her talent earned her the nickname "The Voice of Gold."
Her career reached a global scale after a standout performance at the 2017 Atlantic Music Expo, which led to a contract with Lusafrica, the same label that represented Cesária Évora. Her debut album, “Laço Umbilical,” (2018), and subsequent projects like “Amdjer,” (2022) and “Moda Antiga,” (2024), showcase her ability to blend traditional island rhythms with modern sensibility. Today, international festivals recognize her as a vital cultural ambassador who tours and preserves the rich musical heritage of her homeland.
