cuchatalive2The Liga Masiva community is an eclectic one. We’ve got hard-core hip-hop heads, classic music connoisseurs, Bachata mamis, and even your odd Dave Mathews fan.

Our partnership with band Cuchata and musical visionary Marcelo Quiñonez, though, may just satisfy everyone.

Why? Because Cuchata’s original compositions can rarely be classified into one genre. This danceable but conscious music integrates Afro- Latin traditions with modern elements of Rock, Hip-Hop, Dub, Ska and Afro-Beat, to create the hybridized sound that Cuchata is known for.

Cuchata is teaming up with Liga Masiva on the videos that we’re releasing to the world on March 13 and March 18 and which will be available online after that. We’re proud and honored to merge some of their songs with the powerful imagery and words of Liga Masiva farmers, roaster, and coffee-drinkers.

Stay tuned tomorrow for an exclusive interview with Cuchata frontman Marcelo Quiñonez on coffee, politics, and the one item he can’t live without.

¡Pa’lante Cuchata!
