A native of the island nation of Cape Verde, Cesaria Evora is known as the country's foremost practitioner of the morna, which is strongly associated with the islands and combines West African percussion with Portuguese fados, Brazilian modhinas, and British sea shanties. With Evora now a certified international star, the new millennium didn't see any loss of momentum for the singer and she continued to record and tour the globe. Her 2001 release, Sao Vicente, featured numerous collaborations, including appearances from Bonnie Raitt, Orquesta Aragón, and Brazilian superstar Caetano Veloso. Her growing popularity in North America led to the 2004 Grammy for Best Contemporary World Music recording for 'Voz d'Amor'. The same year she was recognized by French culture minister Jean-Jacques Aillagon as an 'Officer des Arts et des Lettres'.
