Rooted in Colombia and based in New York, Combo Chimbita lives in the future. They have collaborated with Peruvian electro cumbia group Dengue Dengue Dengue, have been covered by Los Mirlos, Chicha Libre, Firewater and others, and inspired countless new bands. Los Wembler’s were an essential part of both volumes of The Roots of Chicha and there couldn’t be a more appropriate band to celebrate the revival of Chicha and Psychedelic Cumbia.įor the past thirty years, Los Wembler’s had mostly remained in the Amazonian city of Iquitos, playing local functions, but there has been a regain of interest for the band. The five Sanchez brothers grew up in the Amazonian city of Iquitos -where they still live – and were some of the first to electrify their local dance rhythms.
