With lyrics in Spanish and English, their songs weave reality and fiction, hope and joy, always carrying a message of respect and love across the Bay Area and beyond.

Banda Sin Nombre combines folk music from around the world with performance art, drag, and
dance. With creative roots in San Francisco’s Mission District, the band features rich vocal
harmonies with acoustic instruments including guitar, fiddle, accordion, charango, jarana, cajon,
and upright bass. The band’s musical influences range from Peruvian chicha to Catalan rumba
and Appalachian old-time to Cumbia.
After a decade playing together, Banda Sin Nombre has built a loyal following in the Bay Area,
through gigs at Stern Grove Festival, Yerba Buena Gardens Festival, Freight & Salvage in
Berkeley, the New Parish in Oakland, MACLA in San Jose, and dozens of venues in San
Francisco, including The Chapel, the Boom Boom Room, Amnesia, El Rio, Cafe Revolution, Elbo
Room, Brava Theater, Mission Cultural Center, Red Poppy Art House, and Club Deluxe. The
band has also weaved creative connections with interdisciplinary artists both locally and by
touring internationally in Spain and Latin America.
