Baracutanga
Baracutanga has been lighting up New Mexico dance floors for more than nine years, creating lines at the doors of places like Sister Bar and Marble Brewery. The band’s members come from Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Argentina and USA, and play a mix of the most soulful and danceable rhythms from South America, including samba, reggae, batucada, cumbia colombiana and afro-Peruvian. The consistently crowded dance floors wherever Baracutanga plays is a big reason why in 2011 they won Best New Band from the Albuquerque Alibi. They won the Albuquerque song competition in 2014 for their song “Rumba de Burque.”
