With multiple awards under their belt and a dedicated following among critics and vinyl collectors, the band now unveil their seventh studio album, Guirca , set for release on October 24th via Denmark s leading outfit for forward forward-thinking jazz, April Records. The release follows their 2024 album Nord Havn , a tribute to the memory of a rapidly gentrifying harbour area of their hometown, conveyed through slick modern production, their trademark global influences, and the energy of a live quartet. Fresh from the inspiration of an electrifying cumbia concert - a lively and rhythmic music and dance style originating from Colombia that blends Indigenous, African, and Spanish influences - Kalaha locked themselves in the studio for two intense weeks. Armed with a collection of new percussion and electronic instruments, along with a talkbox, the band delved deep into their creative impulses. This immersive process fueled the vibrant, eclectic energy that pulses throughout their new album, as they fuse cumbia s infectious grooves with their distinctive collagecollage-esque creative identity.[info sheet from distr.]
