"The Hungry Song", escrito por Chicha Libre
Chicha Libre is a Brooklyn-based six-member band founded by Olivier Conan. Its name is a reference to Chicha, which is the name of a corn-based liquor that has been produced in South America since the time of the Incas. It is also the name of a Peruvian musical genre (also known as Peruvian cumbia) on which the band's music is based.
Conan was first introduced to Chicha music on a trip to Peru in 2005. Their debut album, ¡Sonido Amazonico!, was released in 2008 by Barbes Records. They released their second album, Canibalismo, in 2012. They also released an EP, Cuatro Tigres, in 2013, both digitally and on vinyl.
The band's music is a fusion of rock and roll and Peruvian Amazon-style Cumbia. This music was most popular in the 1960s and 70s in Northern Peru. Conan has described his band's music as "free-form Chicha" and has said they take many liberties with Chicha music.
