More about Los Chinches:-
Los
Chinches are poised to take the world by storm with their epic new
sound that harnesses the psychedelic twists of Peruvian Cumbia and the
Punk and Ska spirit of London. This Spring will see them bringing their
blistering live performances and feverishly addictive melodies to venues
around the country. Boasting a crack team of Peruvian percussionists
and London guitarists, Los Chinches have blazed a trail across an
eclectic array of UK clubs and rock 'n' roll venues since their
inception three years ago. They've been part of prestigious UK Latin
music festival 'La Linea' at London's Barbican and packed dance floors
at established venues like Cargo and Rich Mix. They've rocked high
profile festival stages at Glastonbury, Bestival and Womad as well as
sharing the bill with Ska Cubano at BT London Live and Ondatropica at
Shoreditch Festival in 2012.
With thanks to the support of Arts Council England.
