Background notes
Archive material and source history
Awakúa formed in Barranquilla, Colombia, around 2010, with Karen Lizarazo as the vocalist. Their music draws on Afro-Colombian rhythms, though the early years were slow going before they built a local audience.
Things shifted in 2015 with the release of the album 'Corazón Bandido'. The title track became a hit in Colombia, lifting the band to wider attention. The song's mix of traditional beats and a more contemporary feel gave them a recognizable sound.
After that, Awakúa put out albums like 'Tiembla' in 2017 and 'Cantos de Colombia' in 2020, which brought in pop and electronic touches. The group includes Sergio Cuello on guitar, Jhonny Zambrano on bass, and Oscar Valderrama on drums, alongside Lizarazo.
