Maria Alice de Fátima Rocha Silva (born 23 October 1961), better known as Maria Alice, is a Cape Verdean singer. She was born and raised on the island of Sal. Cape Verde's international airport is based on Sal, and Maria's unique voice drew the attention of many Cape Verdean musicians who passed through the island on their way to and from Europe, America, and Africa. She soon moved to Lisbon, Portugal and began performing and recording with established artists such as the renowned clarinettist Luís Morais. Her solo album D'zencontre was recorded in Lisbon in 1995 with top local musicians.
