Toran from SPERA MUNDO by Tcheka

Toran tells the story of a simple and humble man who wants to conquer a woman through his sincerity. He describes his grief over his life, complaining about taxes and finances that destroyed him, but which he is willing to rebuild. To do so, he makes an offer to this woman asking if she is willing to be by his side, confirming it with a kiss without leaving him desperately waiting.

Tcheka, born in a small, remote spot on the island of Santiago, Cape Verde, has created an unique and exquisite style that is a testament to the global influences he has embraced.

His music is a busy intersection of traditional forms, folk, jazz, blues, rock, literature, anthropology and film. It is never just Cape Verdean, and it’s never just music, but it’s always captivating.
