When an adventurous quartet sets out on a psychedelic-tropical exploration of Afro-Colombian traditions, the journey becomes exhilarating and irresistibly vibrant. Delving into the insatiable rhythms of traditional repertoires that bridge the Pacific and the Caribbean—Chirimia, Bullerengue, and Champeta—this Afro-Colombian psychedelic-influenced combo exudes an utterly contagious energy. From the fever of Bogotá all the way to France, Luisa Cáceres, Lorenzo Morrone, Lucas Territo, and Antonin Cognet share the riches of Colombia’s musical heritage without restraint.
