Sonido is focused on distilling the influences and experiences of over 40 years into a very distinct form of artistic expression. One that reflects adolescent summers spent on cricket and Andean music, of playlists that include Illapu, Irakere, and The Isley Brothers, of marvelling at the songwriting prowess of Silvio Rodriguez and Victor Jara, as much as Paul Kelly and Nick Cave.
It is a music borne of a love for their home, awe for their heritage, and respect for the sacrifices of their parents' generation that risked it all to build a new life in a strange place. It is traditional music of a place on no map, a folklore in search of a country.
