SUMMARY:La Perla
DESCRIPTION:La Perla is a percussive-vocal trio from Bogotá\, Colombia created by Karen\, Diana\, and Roberta (Giovanna)\, and inspired by the music of the Great Caribbean mixed with sounds of the city. They began playing in 2014 after years of individual experience in the interpretation of gaitas\, hand-drums and folk singing. La Perla is gaita\, porro\, chalupa\, bullerengue\, cumbia\, merengue dominicano\, champeta and beat box. Guarachar is their latest release\, with which they remind us of the spirit of neighborhood parties. \nIn 2015 they won first prize at the Festival de Gaitas de Ovejas\, a legendary Gaita contest-festival in Sucre\, Colombia that had never been awarded to a band from Bogotá and was being awarded for the second time in their over 30 years of history to female artists. Two years later they began touring outside their country with a first visit to Mexico and eventually to Chile\, the US and Europe where they have continued to visit with their powerful lie show. \nThey have released an EP and several singles with the independent label Mambonegro Records run by producer Daniel Michel. “Bruja” from 2018 has become a hymn for all women in Latin-American appearing on the Netflix show “Siempre Bruja” and by being adopted on the streets at the different social uprisings in Spain\, Colombia and Chile. \n
