Known for its energizing live performances, Brussels-based La Chiva Gantiva—founded by Colombian expats—thrills audiences with its unique style of Latin funk performed with a rock-’n’-roll attitude. Singing in French and Spanish, La Chiva Gantiva plays traditional Caribbean instruments, bass guitar, saxophone, and clarinet. The diverse nationalities of the musicians—Colombian, French, Flemish, and Vietnamese—result in a sound that fuses cultures, creating an explosive onstage energy that has opened the path to many of the biggest festivals in Europe.
This is a free event.
