Go into the night dancing with Rabasa! They know what swing is, deeply rooted in the Capeverdian musical traditions, with an undeniable sound of their own. From melancholy morna’s to steaming funaná’s. This multiculti group consists of the four brothers Ortet, Terezinha Fernandes, Paulo Bouwman (all Capeverdian), Hans de Lange (Dutch), trumpet player Kabiné Tagus Traoré, who used to play with Salif Keita in the legendary Malinese group Les Ambassadeurs. Guaranteed hot-blooded.
