LOS GAITEROS DE SAN JACINTO
The Grammy-winning group is one of Colombia's most beloved and most influential groups. One of the first gaita bands to gain national popularity in the mid 1950’s, their music has had a profound impact on the development of Colombian cumbia - a rhythm that is at the heart of gaïta. Los Gaiteros’ mixture of roots music and popular sensibility has allowed them to perform in a multitude of contexts - from village fiestas to Mexico’s Olympics, rock clubs and major international festivals. The album they recorded for the Smithsonian earned them a Grammy back in 2008 and they have performed in most of Europe and the Americas.
The group is very much a village effort with new members joining the band as their elders leave.
TROPICAL VORTEX is Barbès long-running series showcasing all manners of tropical styles from Latinolandia with live band and DJs playing cumbia, chicha, guaguanco, mambo, plena, Sanjuanitos and other styles of vintage or not so vintage styles. Past artists include Combo Chimbita, Chicha Libre, Los Cumpleaños, Bulla en el Barrio with appearances by Chico Trujillo, Son Rompe Pera, Paito y los Gaiteros de Punta Brava, Son Palenque, Ceferina Banquez and many many more..
