American chicha/cumbia band from Brooklyn, New York, formed 2007. Olivier Conan (guitar/charango). Sonido Amazónico (2008), Canibalismo (2012). Play Peruvian chicha — 1960s-70s Amazonian cumbia psychedelia. Surf guitars meet cumbia rhythms and Peruvian folk melodies. Niche but joyful cross-cultural pollination.
