Cape Verdean singer, born 1932 in Mindelo, Sao Vicente, Cape Verde. Adriano Gonçalves (5 March 1932 - 13 July 2013), known by his stage name Bana and king of Morna, was a Cape Verdean balladeer and an interpreter of the morna style, the plaintive, melodic lament which is a staple musical style of the country. Bana, who is over seven feet tall, began his musical career during Portuguese colonial rule, when he worked as a handyman and bodyguard for the legendary Cabo Verdean composer and performer, B. Leza. Suffering from poor health during the last years of his life, Bana died on 13 July 2013 in Loures hospital, Portugal, after a cardiac arrest.
