Archive material and source history

Kalamarka formed in Bolivia in 1994 with Rodolfo Choque on vocals and charango, Hugo Gutiérrez on vocals and guitar, Elmer Hermosa on vocals and bass, Fernando Vacaflor on vocals and drums, and José Bermúdez on vocals and keyboards. Their self-titled debut came out that same year, followed by albums like 1997's 'Ando buscando' and 2000's 'Pachakuti'.

Their song 'Amazonas' became a notable piece, sung in Spanish and Quechua with lyrics about the Amazon rainforest. Other tracks like 'Ama sua Ama llulla Ama quella' and 'Pastorcita' appear in their catalog. They've performed at festivals including Glastonbury in the UK, WOMAD in Australia, and Viña del Mar in Chile.

Their music draws from Andean folk and Amazonian rhythms, often addressing social themes. They released albums through the years like 2004's 'Somos sur', 2008's 'Inimitables', and 2016's 'Kalamarka acústico', with 'La memoria inquebrantable' coming out in 2019.
