The band behind Edinburgh’s underground fiesta scene, Los Chichanos formed to heat up their audiences with pumping live Latin music. Mixing a rich percussion section, powerful vocals, vintage guitar solos and mesmerizing Peruvian melodies from the Amazon and the Andes, Los Chichanos perform “chicha” or Jungle Cumbia. The style of music has experienced a worldwide boom in recent years, and it’s clear why – tropical vibes, jungle sounds, experimental guitar-driven songs, '60s organ leads and all the raucous rhythms of live cumbia & salsa! This music was written to make bodies move and minds travel.
With members from Brazil, USA, Australia and the UK, the international combo formed in Scotland in 2021. Their shows regularly reach capacity across Edinburgh, popular amongst lovers of Latin music and late night dance circles. Using traditional cumbia rhythms and full-powered percussion on congas, bongos, guira and kit, the group mixes experimental electric guitar and iconic nostalgic organ sounds, exploring ‘60s psychedelic and surf influences… The result? A hugely danceable setlist that transforms any night out into an infectious tropical fiesta. Let Los Chichanos lead you on their jungle expedition across the Latino dancefloor and deep into the misty South American rainforest.
Tonight, Los Chichanos perform "chicha", a genre also known as Jungle Cumbia which originated in 1960s Peru. Join the live fiesta of rich Latin percussion, vintage electric guitar and organ with mesmerizing melodies from South America and the raucous rhythms of live cumbia & salsa.
