A Mexican band blending traditional harp music with rock, led by Jorge Ochoa since 2010.
For their sound, start with 'Santa Sara Kali.' For their lyrical world, 'Cordel Do Malandrinho' gives you a feel for the folklore and contemporary themes they work with.
They take the jarocho harp tradition and run it through a psychedelic rock filter, creating something that feels both rooted and restless. The track 'Santa Sara' from their 2013 album 'Santa Sara Kali' is a good example of that blend catching wider attention. Their work with artists like Ruben Albarran and Natalia Lafourcade shows they operate in a space where folk traditions and contemporary sounds meet.
Formed in 2010, the band's 2013 album 'Santa Sara Kali' marked a turning point. They've kept releasing albums like 'El Despertar' in 2016 and 'Arrullo' in 2021, even through personal challenges like Ochoa's 2016 legal issues that led to canceled shows.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
