Julio Abre el ojo

by Lisandro Meza

A fantastic Cumbia with a perfect balance in its instrumentation. A masterpiece from Cumbia maestro Lisandro Meza.

The cumbia is the national music of Colombia, a hot rhythm with an airily syncopated melody. Its roots reflect the ethnic variety of the country's population: it blends African and native Indian instruments with Spanish lyrics. The unique sound of Lisandro's accordion leads this track and gets everybody dancing!
