Conjunto Papa Upa
The Amsterdam-based neo-tropicalia band Conjunto Papa Upa, led by Venezuelan percussionist Alex Figueira, continues the rich tradition of Latin American psychedelic music. The band’s gritty sound – with frenetic percussion, guitar, organ and bass – combines African and Caribbean rhythms, surf, samba, old school salsa, funk and sarcastic lyrics that cleverly portrait the complexity of the current socio-political situation in Venezuela. Their debut album Libre Para Amar was released by the New York label Names You Can Trust in 2020.
