A Buenos Aires band mixing cumbia, salsa, and social commentary since 1993.
For their mix of rhythm and message, check out "Ao Seus Pés" and "Argentina Loca." The latter really captures that moment when their music intersected with something bigger.
They formed in Buenos Aires in 1993 with a name that tells you everything - Argentine folk blended with Latin rhythms like cumbia and salsa. Songs like "Ao Seus Pés" show their knack for catchy beats, while their 1997 track "Argentina Loca" drew attention during protests and got leader Martín "Pelusa" Romero briefly detained. Their later albums like "La Revuelta" and "El Mundo Está Loco" kept that rhythm-and-message blend going.
They started with their self-titled debut in 1996 and have put out seven albums since. The band includes Sergio Torres on guitar, Juanjo Burgos on bass, Diego Lema on drums, and Sergio "Tano" Marciello on keyboards. Their catalog includes tracks like "Pancadão," "O Teu Veneno," and "Coração Palhaço" that round out their Latin-infused rock sound.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
