Bio
La Colectiva if translated, would be The collective. This best describes the south-bay based group of musicians. The embracement of all Latin American culture as its own, is what enables the group to have such a rich, and colorful combination of traditional latin sounds. Streetwize Salsa Dura/Cumbia and Vallenato of Colombia/Son Jarocho of Veracruz Mexico/Cuban Son/Guaracha/Afro-Peruvian Festejo/Lando rythyms are just some of the genres covered by La Colectivas member base. The groups cultural background spans over all the Americas; Mexico, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Peru, Puerto Rico. For the past 7 years, La Colectiva has been known to turn a get-together into a rumba; a party into a fieston, an after-party into an all night fandango, but to the musicians, each performance is viewed as an opportunity to expose people to the roots of modern latin music, which unfortunately is a long forgotten art form in todays music scene
