The art focused on the images of the great poet Fernando Pessoa and acted as a catalyst for the Canadian singer and composer to collaborate with local and foreign musicians, and embark on creating a sound that matched poetry starting from Pessoa's early years in South Africa and the atmosphere of Lisbon's mythical area Alfama. This was Tammy's starting point, and from there she constructed a folk oriented soundscape embedded in her beloved jazz.
