Eager to build and promote new Colombian sounds, Salsangroove has left its mark on jazz, hard salsa, Colombian folklore, fusion, and rock, with a mix of influences and adventurous compositions that explore, enrich, and enliven traditions to create something unique.
Inspired by equal parts classic salsa and avant-garde electronic vibes, the band’s respect for tradition inspires risk-taking in composition, interpretation, and understanding of ‘Latin music’ that aims to enrich the larger culture with musical evolution. Their reinventions have paid off: a 2017 Latin Grammy nomination for Best Tropical Fusion Album, slots alongside legends like Rubén Blades, and performances at Glastonbury Festival, and more.
The band interprets salsa for a new generation, linking the past with the present - and future: The ancestral drum to the subwoofer, the announcements of the sonero to the jungle beats, a jazzy saxophone and dub, dancehall, and more. What unites it all is the dance floor, with music that heads straight to the heart and the body of anyone up for vibrating with joyful and electronic rhythms.
