Description

From Bogotá comes one of the most exhilarating Afro-futurist projects of the moment! It's impossible to resist the call of the multiple percussion instruments that drive this Afro-electro performance, where dance spirits are invoked.
With the idea of a hypnotic ritual that awakens consciousness and inflames the body, three musician-singers hammer out Caribbean and Colombian rhythms with African roots: champeta, bullerengue, cumbia... to the point of trance. Inspired as much by the global revolutionary movements of recent years as by the social reality of their own countries, they blend ancestral chants, inspiring hymns, tribal-house sounds and percussive rhythms with a captivating sense of stagecraft. Mysterious masks and fluorescent wigs make up the mystical and joyful universe of this band, who were spotted on the Colombian alternative scene and quickly won over the rest of the world, with a fine track record at major European festivals and opening for Radiohead on their Soundhearts tour! With Edgardo "El Guajiro" Garcés, vocals and machines, Andrés "Mbongokey" Mercado, vocals and dunduns and Miguel Guerra, vocals, alegre drum and djembe.
