Join us for Original Roots and the incredible Lokandes, who we are thrilled to welcome to the Living Room stage!

Lokandes is the combination of two words: ‘Crazy’ and ‘Andes’ which represents the intention of their music: Crazy music from the Andes. The project aims to create alternative music, taking the melodies and energy of Andean music and bringing it up to date; creating a fusion of traditional roots and Afro-Andean rhythms with other contemporary genres such as Reggae, Cumbia, Ska, Jazz, Son, Rumba Folk and funky Latin rhythms.

They unite musicians and instruments from Peru, Bolivia, Spain, France, China, Chile and the UK in their first phase and set their highly original music, alongside socially conscious lyrics and a super-tight rhythm section bringing awareness to Latin-American and worlwide cultures with their music. Nowadays the bands is in their second phase and are keeping their multiculturalists essence with musicians from Panama, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Canaries Isle and the UK.

The band had the opportunity to play on different venues like Notting hill arts club, Passing Clouds, Jazz Cafe, Coronet,The O2 – The British Music Experience – Millennium Dome, etc.. and festivals as Big Chill Fest, Love Box, Movimientos, Andean Connection, Shoreditch Festival, Carnaval del Pueblo (Burguess Park), Global Local, Latin Quarter, The Scoop, Kendal Callling, Secret Garden Party, London Mela at Gunnersbury Park, London Green Fair, Glastonbury , Vamos Festival, BT London river of live (Olympics 2012), Rhythmtree Festival & Bestival 2013 – Isle of Wight, Royal Festival Hall part of Southbank winter festival 2014, Horniman museum Garden , Standom Calling 2014, Chili Fiesta 2015, among others music venues and festivals in the UK such as Passing Clouds, Notting Hill art club, Bolivar Hall, The Forge – Camden, Jam in a Jar, Momo’s underground, Union Chapel 2017 & Jazz Café 2018.

They supported in London the legendary band Los Kjarkas & Susana Baca, Juanito Ayala, Miki Gonzalez, Jenny and the Mexicats in their London shows.
