Eneida Marta is one of the most genuine and vibrant African voices and a true ambassador for the music of Guinea-Bissau.
This passion for the land of her birth led her to embrace humanitarian causes, having been nominated by UNICEF as its ambassador for Guinea-Bissau.
In 2006, she caught the attention of the world music giant Putumayo World Music which included her work on the compilation An Afro-Portuguese Odyssey.
That same year, Eneida Marta came in first place in a World Music contest with the song “Mindjer Dôlce Mel”, which Putumayo would also include on the compilation Acoustic Africa. In 2008, she was selected for the biggest World Music fair in the world, WOMEX, performing for over 3 thousand professionals from all over the world. A special moment that resulted in an acclaimed international tour.
This is just a summary of the path that has brought Eneida to the present day, taking her across stages from Madrid and Barcelona to Amsterdam or Vancouver, from Rome to Budapest and Mexico City, from Boston to London and Bern.
In all of them, the same emotional applause of those who find a voice full of soul, dreams, pain and joy.
FAMILY the new album is now available in all digital platforms and is being featured on the Top 20 Transglobal Word Music Charts (November 2022). Produced by Ruben Azziz, the London based producer, FAMILY blends tradition with urban soundscapes.
Eneida Marta is nominated for BEST PALOP Female Artist for the African Entertainment Awards USA 2022.
Eneida is a special woman, of causes and strenght. It’s a privilege to be able to watch her rise on the world’s great stages, celebrating the ethnic roots of her country from Balanta to Fula, from Mandinga to Manjaca.
