been a year since the bands debut album Blow Up (Nacional) dropped in the United States, but fans are still excited as ever to catch Bomba Estreo live. The success has been a quick climb with appearances at two high-profile festivalsSXSW and Bonnarooand a string of national tour dates thereafter where this Colombian group has captured fans at every stop.
In Brooklyn this July, where the band staged an outdoor show, the rain was pouring and people ran desperately for cover. If the rain didnt affect the masses, the humidity definitely didbut luckily, it wasn't enough to scare the audience away. By the time Bomba Estreo walked on stage, Prospect Park Bandshell was packed.
The music started, and the crowd stayed calm for a moment. But after five minutes of tranquil jamming [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], lead singer Liliana Saumet shot out with high adrenaline, and the crowd quickly followed her lead as she waved her hands and danced wildly.
Even in the humidity, Saumet was full of energy as Simn Meja (bass), Kike Egurrola (drums), and Julin Salazar (guitar) rocked out beside her. Saumet ran, danced, and wailed on stage while Salazar joined in with his own moves and looked fresh in his purple skinny jeans.
While Saumet ruled the front stage, Egurrola secured the most important element in Cumbia musicthe beat. With drum and conga in check, Egurrolas hands moved quick and set the tempo for hip-shaking songs like Juana, Fuego, and Feelin.
Bomba Estreo is a self-proclaimed electro vaciln group, using bass funk, electro loops, and Cumbia rhythm in every song. The audience danced along to the beat and competed with Saumet on nabbing the title for the best hip shaker. Then there were the fans who failed in the hip-shaking department and opted for moshing instead.
The favorite of the night was positively Cosita Rica [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," with sensual lyrics and semi-vulgar language that made it a sexy, cool love song. When the beginning verse played, the park lit up and fans chanted their favorite line, You make me feel so high [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], carajo!
Saumets lyrical skill and the groups exciting combination of musical influences put Bomba Estreo ahead of the game. Most Cumbia-based groups have a formula, but Bomba Estreo has created their own with hip-hop, reggae, and electro in the mix. This chemistry made their Brooklyn show an exciting summer night.
