Frente Cumbiero creates innovative but very danceable tropical music driven by crazy keys/electronics, uplifting horns and energetic percussion that makes you jump and sweat. The band takes you on a trip to all corners of the cumbia landscape.
Frente Cumbiero in the past has collaborated with Kronos Quartet and recorded an album with dub master Mad Professor, and played great concerts at festivals like Roskilde, Womad and Fuji Rock. Their record Cera Perdida was released in 2021, during covid times, while in the meantime they also released an album together with the Japanese band Minyo Crusaders.
Their latest record Inconcreto & Asociados was released in April 2025 on the Colombian label La Roma Records. For the first time in some years Frente Cumbiero will be touring in Europe again in June 2025.
“Frente Cumbiero’s résumé is so varied that it is hard to sum it all up in just a few word. And why should we? Let’s hope they never stop exploring!” (Que Pasa Colombia? – documentary)
