Los Angeles band El Santo Golpe has released a new single and it captures the vibrancy of their live performances wonderfully. “El Ladrón” is a song for thieves with an upbeat and tropical vibe. The style is in Son Jarocho, which strongly features the percussion of shoes on wooden boxes. El Santo Golpe blends traditional rhythms all the way from Mexico to Colombia to the Caribbean to find a unique sound. Cumbia, garifuna, son jarocho, and other rhythms and instruments find a home in El Santo Golpe’s repertoire, distinguishing them from traditional folk cumbia musicians.
Ulises “Cheese” Rodriguez’s lead vocals cut through Analy Garcia and Eduvina “Duby” Orozco’s chorus with a rich timbre. The multiple singers and vocal textures are excellent together. Jose Luis “Aguatl” Ledezma’s accordion intro is really lovely. It’s jazzy and memorable with great movement. The percussion is out of this world. Ivan McCormick, Jorge Canchola, and Danny Orozco are rhythmic geniuses combining and transitioning between different dance beats from around the world. Alex Reyes utilizes a uniquely small bass that’s fun to see played up close on stage.
This group is a blast too see live. They look and sound amazing. When the band is dancing you can’t help but want to move too. Download their new single “El Ladrón” and share with your friends. You won’t want to miss this hit.
