"The Cape Verdean Blues was inspired by three different sources. First, Cape Verdean Portuguese folk music from the Cape Verde Islands, which is where my father comes from. Second, the Brazilian samba beat that I learned when I was in Rio from my good friend and drummer Do Um Romao, Third my love for the good old American funky blues"
