Although Lura may have started as a backup singer to the legendary Cape Verde diva Cesaria Evora, there is little in Lura's music that suggests Evora's mournful sounds. With a rich, throaty allure, the 20-something Lura draws from a broader palette, embracing French Afro-pop, Brazilian sounds and earthy, traditional African music. Curiosity gig of the week.
