Peruvian-born Tania Libertad is probably one of Mexico's best known bolero singers, a genre she began to master from the tender age of 5. Since meeting Cesaria de Evora and her producer Jose da Silva, her dream of spreading the Afro Peruvian culture and music around the world is coming true, with her latest album "Costa Negra" released with Lusafrica.
