Ritmo Del Barrio presents Chicha Por Favor

Las Chanchas are here to shake up the scene. Born in February 2025, this brand new project is on the mission to deliver energetic performances and push the boundaries of what is possible in music.

Challenging the traditional lineup and instrumentation of the genre, Las Chanchas bring a fresh take on chicha, the hypnotic tropical cumbia of the Amazon Rainforest. Their small-scale format preserves the full flavour and rich texture of the sound, proving that innovation can happen with fewer hands.
