YumboTron has emerged as Athens first and only psychedelic Cumbia band, earning them a spot on the AthFest Main Stage in 2025. The band was conceived in 2023 when Gregory Sanders and Philip Kohnen were on the road with Klezmer Local 42. Gregory shared a deep cut playlist of Chicha, a Peruvian subgenre of Cumbia. Featuring Michael Merva, Adriana Thomas, Dave Spivey, Philip Kohnen, Gregory Sanders and many guests. YumboTron is a local supergroup featuring members from Pylon Reenactment Society, Bichos Vivos and many more. Together, the still-growing combo promises to add a dose of Athens weirdness to Cumbia.
Wonderland Rangers is the project of five veteran musician friends from Athens, GA. Formed in 2015, and given “the first band name that came to mind,” Wonderland Rangers musically jumps from song to song like hopping planets- each with its own varied ecosystem and wild geology. The sonic paint palette is full of bright color, and the songs’ textures range from sparse and edgy to saturated, lush, and full.
Song to song, listeners will hear influences like Beck, Sonic Youth, Tom Tom Club, Nirvana, Missing Persons, Parliament-Funkadelic, The Clash, My Bloody Valentine, ABBA, The Rolling Stones, Prince, Jimi Hendrix, The Pixies and more.
Wonderland Rangers released full-length LP, Baby’s Bread, in 2018, and follow-up, Trouble & Treasure, from 2020-2022.
