An ambitious work that delves deeply into her musical roots and introspective worldview.
Their sound is organic and delicately blends folk, world music, rock and pop.
As the album title "Folklore" suggests, Furtado focuses on her Portuguese immigrant background and themes such as family, nature, and tradition. Making extensive use of acoustic guitar, violin, and ethnic rhythms, she constructs a sound world with warmth and depth that is different from urban pop.
