Caballo Salvaje - Cumbia De La Noche
Description
From the windswept streets of Edinburgh
comes a sound that gallops wild through the
night, equal parts jungle heat and Highland
haze. Los Chichanos, a fiercely multicultural
collective formed in 2021 under the spirited
direction of guitarist Sandino Borges. Never
ones to wait for an invitation, the band have
carved out a scene of their own in Edinburgh,
a home for tropical rhythm and nocturnal joy
amid Scotland’s long dark nights.
Their devotion to the electrifying pulse of
Peruvian tropical music, cumbia and chicha,
intertwined with Afro-Latin rhythms and
vintage psychedelia runs deep. Add the soul
of Cuban son, the swing of Brazilian grooves
and a hint of spaghetti western melodrama,
and you begin to hear the distinct voice of
Los Chichanos.
Caballo Salvaje gallops forward with fuzzed-
out guitar, echo-drenched organ, and the
untamed spirit of the Andes. Cumbia de la
Noche was written during a harsh winter
season when daylight became a distant
memory.
