Los Gaiteros de San Jacinto

MADRE CUMBIA—a historic collaboration between Los Gaiteros de San Jacinto, Fruko, and Carmelo Torres. More than an album, Madre Cumbia brings together the living roots of Colombian cumbia with the artists who have carried, transformed, and preserved its legacy across generations. From the ancestral sounds of the gaitas and drums to the accordion of the sabanas and the electric bass that helped redefine tropical music, this record celebrates the full arc of cumbia’s evolution. MADRE CUMBIA—a historic collaboration between Los Gaiteros de San Jacinto, Fruko, and Carmelo Torres.
