Join us June 27th at Dan Electro's for a Cumbia Dance Party celebrating the release of Gio Chamba's "Tropidelicos" vinyl along with collaborator Principe Q on the decks all night. Cumbia all night!
Gio Chamba is an Electropical-Cumbia duo from Houston, Texas, formed by Gio Alejandro and Coffee Guzman. Blending electronic production, hip-hop, and traditional cumbia, their sound feels both modern and familiar, driven by bass-heavy grooves, psychedelic guitar lines, and high-energy live.
Their music is shaped in collaboration with producer Svani Quintanilla (Principe Q) son of A.B. Quintanilla of Los Kumbia Kings bringing a distinct cumbia lineage to their evolving sound. On stage, Gio's vocals and guitar interplay with Coffee's explosive, punk influenced conga playing, creating a dance-forward live experience that connects immediately with audiences.
Over the past decade, Gio Chamba has shared stages with artists such as Ozomatli, Natalia Lafourcade, Chicano Batman, Caravan Palace, L'Impératrice, AB Quintanilla & Kumbia Allstars, and many more.
Their latest full-length album, Tropidélicos (Mixto Records), draws inspiration from Peruvian Chicha while pushing psychedelic-electronic cumbia forward. Gio Chamba's sound emanates from the cultural melting-pot that is Houston. Their music is dotted with vicious raps, tropical vocal melodies, and psychedelic guitar solos from Gio, but the driving force of their performances comes from their bass heavy, danceable, electronic beats rooted in the wide-spread genre, Cumbia.
