Neblinas del PacíficoFeaturing Federico Ardila, Pipe Arrechea, May-Li Khoe, Juliana Mejía, Andrés Reyes on marimba de chonta, bombos, cununos, guasás, and vocals, Neblinas del Pacífico weaves a sonic tapestry of marimba de chonta music from the Afro-Colombian Pacific coast. They play music of rivers and mangroves, of percussive poly-rhythms and multi-part harmonies, of spirituality and everyday life, of ancestors and tradition, of celebration and resistance.
