About La Sonora Mazurén

Last representative of the new alternative tropical scene of Bogota, La Sonora Mazurén is the tropical indie emerald of the mountainous and noisy Bogotá, accompanied by the singers womens of La Perla ; Diana Sanmiguel and Giovanna Mogollón, and virtuoso musicians who handle noise and psychic harmonies and unravel all the mysteries of the cumbia accordion. La Sonora Mazurén are inspired by Brazilian Tropicalia and tropical retro-futurism and use synths and electric guitars alongside the vallenato accordion and more traditional percussion. Their sound transports the audience to diverse contexts, from continental umbias, to Peru's psychedelic chichas, and african fuzz. Their staging includes electric guitar, vintage keyboards, accordion, latin percussion, and a singer duo. Lisergic and tropical, La Sonora Mazurén is one of the new gangs representing Colombia’s new tropsychedelia. The musicians all belong to this new Bogotá scene driven by the first generation of experimenters of all genres, with groups such as Frente Cumbiero, Ondatropica, Curupira, Los Pirañas, Los Toscos and the Meridian Brothers. Often coming from jazz and experimental music, this first generation finally became passionate about Colombian tropical music by reinventing new ways of reinterpreting traditional music in sometimes esoteric, but always playful contexts - with more rock instrumentation and acoustic and electronic mixes. The members of the Colombian band La Sonora Mazurén are: Diana Sanmiguel: Percussion and vocals Iván Medellín: Accordion, keyboards, and voice Juan David Lacorazza: Electric guitar Luis Lizarralde: Drums and timbales Miguel Rore: Percussion and voice Nicolás Eckardt: Bass Roberta Léone: Percussion and voice
