La Armada’s focus is to leave their mark on heavy music. A punk band at heart, they utilize elements of Afro-Caribbean rhythms and metal to create a style as unique as their story. Formed in the Dominican Republic in 2001 from where they dominated the Caribbean scene for years, the band opted to take a leap and relocate to Chicago in 2008, where they still reside.

Influenced by bands ranging from the Bad Brains to Death, they take elements from their native Island’s music to conjure a unique recipe; explosive live energy, and a clear cut narrative that highlights the effects of neo-colonialism on vulnerable communities.

Whether headlining tours throughout the world or supporting the likes of Sick of it All, Propaghandi, Strung Out, Death by stereo, and more, La Armada has come to bring a vibrant spin to the scene.

The South American rock group known as Zeta (originally from Venezuela, now based in the

United States) embraces their identity through music in collaboration with The Abajo Cadenas Orchestra (a collective of musicians spread out across the world) to publicly share a new album that connects them to their roots more than ever. Experimenting thoroughly with musical elements that anyone who grew up around Latin American culture will have engrained in their psyche such as calypso, cumbia, salsa, bossa nova and the distinct afro-Caribbean rhythms among other sounds that have left a cultural imprint that represent the places where the musicians grew up and formed their musical identities.
