Editor's note

Monsieur Periné's Colombian swing and cumbia blend

A Bogotá band that mixes jazz, swing, and cumbia into something hard to pin down.

For a quick sense of their sound, try 'Veneno' or 'La Tienda de Sombreros'. They frame that blend of swing and Colombian rhythms without overthinking it.

They've carved out a space where genres don't stick, pulling from swing and cumbia on tracks like 'Veneno'. That refusal to sit neatly in one box has been part of their appeal since they formed in 2007. Songs like 'La Tienda de Sombreros' show how they make that hybrid feel natural, not forced.

They started in Bogotá in 2007, but their mix of swing, jazz, and cumbia made it hard to find footing early on. Their 2012 debut 'Hecho a Mano' and later work like 2018's 'Encanto Tropical' with 'Nuestra Canción' helped them reach listeners outside Colombia. The seven-member group, led by vocalist Catalina García and guitarist Santiago Prieto, builds arrangements collaboratively.

Archive material and source history

Monsieur Periné formed in Bogotá in 2007. The Colombian band's sound pulls from swing, jazz, and cumbia, though early on that mix made it hard to find their footing. They released their debut album, 'Hecho a Mano,' in 2012.

Their third album, 'Encanto Tropical,' came out in 2018 and included the track 'Nuestra Canción' with Vicente García. That song helped bring them wider attention outside Colombia. Other songs like 'Bailar Contigo' and 'La Muerte' show their range within that hybrid style.

The group has seven members, including vocalist Catalina García and guitarist Santiago Prieto. They work collaboratively, with each musician bringing something to the arrangements. Their music doesn't sit neatly in one genre, which has been part of their appeal from the start.
