Banda Rim Bam Bum is a collective of 23 musicians from Chile inspired by traditional Andean, Latin-American carnaval, and Afro-Latino rhythms. Their original compositions feature indigenous rhythms and melodies (Morenada, Diablada, Tinku), Salsa, and Frevo fused with Funk, Ska and Rocksteady. Adapting popular and folkloric repertoire to wind and percussion, their rhythmic-musical mixture captures the essence and spirit of Carnaval.
