YouTube | June Freedom
Transatlantic Afro/alt-pop artist June Freedom is as uninhibited and genre-bending as his origins suggest. Though born in Boston, June spent most of his youth abroad in his family's homeland, the fabled Cape Verde Islands. He often describes his time on Fogo as an unparalleled coming-of-age experience, enhanced by raucous live music, recreational horseback riding, surfing, and the power that comes with living on a volcanic island. It was no surprise, then, that June matured into a multicultural and multilingual artist in the U.S., singing in English, Portuguese, Spanish and Kriolu.
