Kchiporros

Kchiporros is a Paraguayan band that mixes ska, cumbia and pop. They formed in 2006 in Asunción and released their first EP that same year. The album immediately put them on the map, both in the country and in the region. Their sound is unusual, combining rock with cumbia and using instruments from different genres. That's why their music sounds like a journey through different soundscapes.

They released seven albums and are on tour through Latin America and Europe. In those tours they visit countries like France, Ireland, Spain, Mexico, among others. Sometimes they invite other artists, like Underground Cult or Toy Selectah, who also helped produce an album. The band is very active, and that opened doors to international festivals.
