ABOUT THE ARTISTS:
The Huarango is a tree that grows in the southern coast of Peru. It is characterized by its great resistance. It has strong roots that can measure up to 70 meters (230 feet) deep, this allows the tree to live up to one thousand years self-sufficiently feeding itself from the water in the subsoil. Therefore, it survives the arid land and hostile climate even creating new ecosystems for the habitat of other species.
Our Huarango is a new musical project born in the city of Oakland, California based in Afro-Peruvian musical roots and the cultural heritage of its people. Huarango has the purpose of being an agent of diffusion of Afro-Peruvian culture in the San Francisco Bay Area, and in all the spaces where we can take our music.
Huarango is a contemporary proposal of Afro-Peruvian music. Anchored in the strong presence of Afro-Peruvian percussion: Cajon, Cajita and Quijada de Burro (donkey ́s jawbone); instruments that are part of the history of this population and have manifested themselves as symbols of resistance for African descendants in Peru.
