A night with three members of two-time Latin Grammy-nominated Locos por Juana, in their newest incarnation, Afro Kumbe. The side project is an effort to delve into their Colombian roots, blending them with electronic sounds and making them more accessible. “We’ve been jamming with electronics for a long time, but the idea came from wanting to do a Locos DJ set,” says vocalist Itagui, who, along with LPJ bandmates Mark Kondrat and Javier “Lakambra” Delgado, makes up Afro Kumbe. “It’s something cool and different, and a chance for us to experiment with different instruments.”AFRO KUMBE describes themselves as “Caribbean Mash Up Masters” using electronic elements with Colombian Folkloric percussion.
