Nemegata is a fierce power trio fronted by Víctor-Andrés Cruz “El Guámbito” on lead vocals, electric guitar, synth, and Colombian percussion. With the taut, polyrhythmic lock of César Valencia “I Nova” on bass, synth, Colombian percussion, and vocals. And Fabián Rincón “Don Fabo” on drums, synth drums, and vocals. Their sound is often described as hallucinatory, otherworldly, and haunting, with a trance-like performance.
The band is heavily influenced by their native Colombian traditions such as cumbia, bullerengue, gaita music, Colombian Andean songs, as well as '60s and '70s mind-bending psychedelia from Africa, South America, and the Caribbean.
