ROLANDO BRUNO was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina. After spending three years in Spain, he returned home to fully pursue his unique musical vision. His current tropical music project began in 2005, while he was still a member of the garage-punk band Los Peyotes. While Los Peyotes followed a classic rock band format, Bruno’s approach to cumbia was born in solitude, using his computer—his "best friend"—to craft backing tracks, humorously dubbing it his “MIDI Orchestra.”
In 2015, Bruno expanded his sound by assembling a full band and reintroducing himself as Rolando Bruno y El Grupo Arévalo, a supergroup of underground musicians from Buenos Aires. The lineup features members of Les Mentettes, Alfonso El Pintor, Los Alamos, Los Peyotes and Pecera.
Cumbia Trash: A Unique Sound & AestheticTheir music is rooted in cumbia, but Bruno defines it as "cumbia trash"—a style that blends Peruvian chicha, '80s and '90s Argentine cumbia, psychedelic rock, Afro rhythms, and other global influences. This genre is not only about the sound but also about its distinctive vintage aesthetics and visuals, which characterize the band’s unique identity. Their live shows are an electrifying guarantee of tropical dance madness!
To date, they have released three albums:• Bailazo (2015)• El Mundo Está Cumbiando (2019)• Cosas Raras (2024)
Rolando Bruno has taken his cumbia trash sound worldwide, performing extensively throughout Argentina and neighboring countries. As a solo act, he has toured Europe regularly and has visited Japan three times. Meanwhile, with El Grupo Arévalo, he has completed one European tour, highlighted by a standout performance at the Lowlands Festival in the Netherlands.
