ASTROPICAL is a dynamic Latin‑fusion concert event featuring Colombia’s electro‑tropical trailblazers Bomba Estéreo alongside Venezuela’s genre‑defying Rawayana. Expect vibrant blends of cumbia, reggae, psychedelia, and dance‑floor energy.
This tropical explosion is making its Petco Park debut at Gallagher Square. It’s a perfect evening for fans of global rhythms and high‑energy dance music.
Rawayana, from Caracas, Venezuela, started in 2007 and call their style “trippy pop.” In practice, that means a genre-bending mix of reggae, funk, salsa, psychedelia, and modern pop. Their music reflects both escapism and resilience, offering a kind of sonic refuge from Venezuela’s political turmoil. Over time, their lyrics have sharpened, touching on social realities—sometimes controversially, as with their viral hit Veneka. Despite challenges at home, they’ve earned critical acclaim, a loyal fanbase, and even Grammy recognition.
In 2025, the two groups came together to form a collaborative supergroup called ASTROPICAL. What started as a casual jam session in Miami turned into a full album, recorded on the Caribbean coast of Colombia. The project blends Bomba Estéreo’s cumbia-driven electronic fire with Rawayana’s laid-back, kaleidoscopic groove. The songs carry themes of healing, unity, and cultural identity, with playful references to astrological signs woven through the tracklist.
Live, ASTROPICAL is a vibrant, communal spectacle: a mash-up of Colombian and Venezuelan energy, beats rooted in Afro-Caribbean traditions, and modern festival-ready production. Seeing them on stage is less about watching a band and more about stepping into a sonic celebration that blurs borders and genres.
