Cause and Effect presents:
Las tres brujas del tambor
La Perla, las tres brujas del tambor (the three witches of the drums) from Bogotá Colombia, are coming to Richmond this week. They will be performing at the Get Tight Lounge, 1104 W. Main Street, on Saturday May 4. Doors open at 7:30 PM; La Perla goes on stage at 9:00.
They will also be performing live on WRIR this Saturday afternoon between 1 and 3 PM. I’ll be hosting a special edition of the WRIR program “Cause & Effect,” featuring the music of La Perla, their influences, and some of the many bands in the very hip current Bogotá scene. And La Perla will join me in WRIR’s Studio C for a live performance and conversation.
La Perla is a band of three young Bogotanas whose 21st century feminist global perspective on traditional Afro-Colombian rhythms is adding a new dimension to contemporary Latin music. Using just voices and drums, and maybe a little bit of electronics, their music encompasses Afro-Colombia (genres like cumbia, chalupa and mapalé), the broader Latin world (samba, guaguancó, chicha) and the ever-present North (rap, punk rock). They are the folk process in action, in real time.
