Los Pirañas is an instrumental supergroup blending Colombian rhythms with bold experimentalism. The trio—Eblis Alvarez (Meridian Brothers), Mario Galeano (Frente Cumbiero, Ondatropica), and Pedro Ojeda (Romperayo, Sidestepper)—have spent decades pushing boundaries while rooted in Bogota’s vibrant musical scene. Fusing cumbia, champeta, and tropicalia with avant-psych rock, dub minimalism, and spiked jazz, their sound is a kaleidoscopic exploration of past and future.
