NOVALIMA with Dreckig
Star Theater
13 NW Sixth Avenue, Portland, OR 97209
Novalima, a group of four friends from Lima, Peru, are bringing their unique blend of traditional Afro-Peruvian music and global DJ culture to the Star Theater in Portland, OR. Fusing past and future, Novalima has revolutionized the music scene in their native country by bridging the divide between the mainstream and the minority Afro-Peruvian community.
Why We Like It
- Novalima has garnered worldwide critical acclaim, earning a Latin Grammy nomination and being featured in cult filmmaker Robert Rodriguez's hit movie Machete.
- The group's sound is futuristic and cutting-edge, yet their roots reach back hundreds of years to the rich musical repertoire that existed on the periphery of Peruvian popular culture.
- Novalima's performance promises to be an inspiring and revolutionary experience, uniting tradition and innovation, and bridging communities and generations.
Who Should Attend
This event is perfect for fans of world music, Afro-Peruvian culture, and innovative musical fusions. It will appeal to those interested in exploring the intersection of traditional and contemporary sounds, as well as those who appreciate the power of music to bridge divides and celebrate diverse communities.
