ABOUT
Afrodisíaco, agrupación ganadora del Festival de Viña del Mar 2016 (Chile) en la categoría folclórica, preserva y rescata la música de tambor de origen negro de Panamá, dándole un giro contemporáneo. Cantos tradicionales en nuevas versiones y canciones nuevas inspiradas en los tambores forman parte de la propuesta de Afrodisíaco, fusionadas con elementos como guitarras, efectos y rap. Creada en 2014 por Miroslava Herrera y Tatiana Ríos, además realizan afroexpediciones y documentación como base del trabajo musical, lo que a la vez lo convierte en un proyecto de rescate de la memoria histórica. Actualmente trabajan en su primer disco a lanzarse a inicios de 2017. Han participado en festivales internacionales en México y Estados Unidos.
