Some of you already know I used to write Sexxy Saturday Cumbia on GB blog. But in case you did not know about my cumbia side. One of the biggest things that has ever happened to me, was to discover cumbia and its roots..
I explored it that much, that eventually I found peruvian chicha. And I got in love great artists such as with Ranil y Su conjunto, Pedro Miguel y sus maracaibos, Juaneco y su Combo, Marcelino y su orquesta, and so on
Exploring further chichera, I found what seemed to be the beginning of that sound.
It was a peruvian psychedelic rock band called Los Spectros del cuzco
That guitar, rock sound was adapted eventually by more tropical bands, and eventually it developed the sound we all know as Chichera.
Following the same patterns, explosiveness, punk attittude, and amazing exploration of chicha, cumbia, psychedelic and even champeta, a side project from Frente Cumbiero, Los pirannas, release their Debut ALbum:
Toma tu jabon kapax!!
