LOS PIRANAS
˜
Tropical Psychedelic Power Trio
Los Pirañas is Bogota’s most powerful musical triumvirate, a power trio made up of guitarist Eblis Alvarez (Meridian Brothers), drummer Pedro Ojeda (Romperayo) and bassist Mario Galeano (Frente Cumbiero, Ondatropica) -
The three musicians have known each other since high school and have done more to transform Colombian music than pretty much anyone from their generation - hopscotching from roots music to avant-experiments and disseminating their vision around the world.
As a project, Los Pirañas’ music maybe closest to their dark psychedelic rock past, but as such, it is also the more indie-rock ready. If cumbia, champeta and tropicalia are still at the heart of the music, the context is very much that of a psychedelic guitar trio.
While the band performs in Europe somewhat regularly, they have never toured the US .
The band is based in Bogotá.
3 people on stage, 4 on the road. ​
