Music that reflects a mixture from vallenato, ska, rock, cumbia, and Caribbean rhythms.
Fuga

FUGA! was formed in the summer of 2000 in El Paso , TX / Juarez , MEX. The musical fusion of FUGA! is complemented by the unique union of six individuals who bring their singular influences to the mixture. Their extraordinary live performances are embedded with rebel rocksteady vibes as heard on “Tierra Y Libertad”. They fumble with vallenato ska rock sounds on “Puente Negro”. “Una Niña” uses a Caribbean rhythm backbeat to climax with a cumbia finale. Their upcoming and highly anticipated first official record release reads like a diary of border life, describing the best and worst of their living experience. FUGA!'s dedication to social and political issues permeates throughout their lyrics expressing a sense of hope and vibrancy. They continue to create passionate uplifting music for the growing bilingual population.
