Pambelé
Afro Colombian Psychedelic
Album Dámelo
Label La Ruche · 25 mars 2025
In their debut opus Pambelé weaves sparkling threads of 60’s psychedelia into a tapestry of Afro-Colombian influence, an- nouncing their elegant arrival in the transatlantic and definitively Caribbean cultural panorama.
Therein, cheerful voices jubilate while tambor alegre and Farfisa cut shapes shoulder to shoulder and waves of electric guitar and saxophone crash upon Colombia’s northern coastline in wild, torrid celebration.
