La Ganga Calé is a multicultural journey through the musics that define the latin way of life on both sides of the Atlantic. This Spanish group cherishes the power of rhythm as the best way to connect souls, bodies and minds all around the world, and at the same time the most efficient channel to deliver a message of tolerance and diversity. There is no doubt they truly embody the essence of the neighborhood that put them all together in the first place: Lavapies, a unique spot, a powerful melting pot of languages, races, cultures and colors in the center of Madrid.
2019 would mark an inflection point in the band’s trajectory. The videoclip “Bacalao” featuring Orishas’ Ruzzo and their performance at one of the largest cultural gatherings in Europe—the
Sziget Festival—projected La Ganga to wider audiences and launched a new journey sealed by a new record: Jungla Magnética which features special guests including María Peláe and lead
singers Pulpul of Ska-P, Adrià of La Pegatina and Eskorzo’s Tony Moreno. This work fuses funk, rumba, cumbia, merengue, salsa, reggae and ska. La Ganga premiered this album touring with the long-celebrated band Ska-P through Mexico.
The last two years have been marked by significant growth, with the release of new songs and the completion of their Isla Cayena tour, featuring over 65 concerts across every corner of the
Iberian Peninsula, the Canary Islands, and new countries such as France, Belgium, North Macedonia and Bulgaria.
