🔥 EMPANADAS ILEGALES LIVE IN LONDON 🔥
📅 Saturday, August 29, 2026
📍 London Brewing Co-operative
Get ready for an electrifying night of psychedelic tropical grooves, explosive rhythms, and global sounds designed to move both body and spirit.
SUNFEST is thrilled to present Empanadas Ilegales, a psychedelic tropical music collective born from late-night jam sessions and rogue rooftop gigs in Vancouver. With roots spanning Colombia, Ecuador, Argentina, and Canada, the band creates a vibrant collision of sounds where cumbia meets surf rock, salsa intertwines with Persian melodies, and folklore crashes beautifully into free jazz.
Known for their explosive live performances and rhythm-forward musical storytelling, Empanadas Ilegales bridges cultures, sounds, and generations through dance-driven energy and fearless experimentation. Their latest album, Sancocho Trifásico, takes their signature hybridity even further — layered, soulful, and unapologetically genre-defying.
From their live-recorded debut Papayón at Vancouver’s Fortune Sound Club to Creepy Mambo and its rooftop follow-up high above the city skyline, the group has built a reputation for unforgettable performances and boundary-pushing creativity. Along the way, they’ve brought their infectious energy to stages at the Montreal International Jazz Festival, Sled Island Music & Arts Festival, Calgary Folk Music Festival, JUNOFest, and more.
🌴 Psychedelic. Tropical. Unpredictable. Irresistibly danceable.
Join SUNFEST on August 29 for a night where borders disappear, genres collide, and the dance floor takes over.
