CV BOYS band is a band with 9 members in which mostly are brothers and sisters. CV BOYS band recorded their first album "Un So Korasaun" which means "Just One Heart" in Nov. 2005 but they are still working hard to try to follow their dreams and for that reason they are working hard to record a second album in 2012.
CV BOYS band dedicate a lot of their times helping different non-profitable organizations in the communities, help new artists get their first gigs, and perform on the local annual community events.
CV BOYS band plans to use the extra fund to promote the album and trying to bring Capeverdean music to a bigger audience where we will have a chance to introduce our culture to the world.
