RITMO DEL BARRIO PRESENTS CHICHA POR FAVOR: LAS CHANCHAS (LIVE)
Grow, E9 5LN , [Venue Details]Chicha Por Favor returns to light up East London with another deep dive into the hypnotic pulse of tropical cumbia. Rooted in Peruvian chicha but always pushing forward, this edition welcomes a brand-new live force ready to shake the foundations.
Headlining the night are Las Chanchas, a fresh project born in 2025 with a mission: high energy, fearless experimentation, and a bold reimagining of Amazonian chicha. Challenging traditional line-ups and instrumentation, Las Chanchas prove that fewer players can still deliver a full, rich, psychedelic tropical sound. Drawing from diverse cultural and musical backgrounds, they explore new sonic territories while preserving the hypnotic groove at the heart of cumbia. This is just the beginning, and they’re coming to give it everything.
Joining the session is special guest Danny Fitzgerald (Rum Punch Show, NTS Radio). A Liverpool-born DJ and respected digger of classic tropical sounds, Danny has compiled calypso, highlife, jùjú, apala and Afro-Latin jazz for Soul Jazz Records and has spent years championing rare Caribbean, Latin American and West African records. Expect deep selections, rare cuts, and pure tropical heat.
