After a decade playing resistance anthems and South American folk acoustically on the frontlines of environmental, decolonial and queer social movements, Alex Etchart traverses binaries and borders to premiere their band Vientos with their new transcendental sound.

Alex Etchart & Vientos bring the rich, melancholic sounds of South American folklore into wild electronica, and give new life to British Isles and Irish folk songs through rich harmonies and dubstep wobbles.

LGBTQ+ realities and diasporic memories are woven through multilingual melodies and utterly danceable basslines, welcoming us to be everything we are without holding anything back.
