Los Bitchos Return to VEGA 2027 with a Sparkling Fusion of Cumbia and Surf Rock

Los Bitchos, the vibrant multinational trio acclaimed for their energetic instrumental performances, are making a long-awaited return to Copenhagen's VEGA on February 15, 2027. After mesmerizing audiences with their infectious blend of cumbia, psychedelic surf rock, and global influences, their upcoming concert promises yet another electrifying evening, filled with the band's signature party atmosphere and bold musical exploration.

The group consists of Serra Petale (guitar) from Western Australia, Josefine Jonsson (bass) from Sweden, and Nic Crashaw (drums) from England. Los Bitchos have carved out a unique niche on the contemporary music scene, not only due to their international origins but also because their sound transcends musical boundaries—they combine Argentine cumbia, Peruvian chicha, Middle Eastern and Turkish psych rock, and driving surf guitar into an irresistible rhythmic flow.

The trio’s 2022 album, Let The Festivities Begin!, produced by Franz Ferdinand’s frontman Alex Kapranos, received critical acclaim. Tracks like “Pista (Fresh Start)” have been praised for encapsulating sunlight in sound, which music magazine Soundvenue described as a perfect soundtrack for carefree beach days. The album established Los Bitchos as masters of instrumental party music and dancefloor-inducing tracks that have set festival crowds worldwide free.

But Los Bitchos aren’t settling for past glories. On November 3, 2026, they will release their third album, Los Bitchos & Friends Vol 1, marking a new era for the band. The album expands the group’s circle with several guest musicians, adding new dimensions to their imaginative instrumental music. Among the most prominent is Ambrose Kenny-Smith from King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, who features on the single “Holding Cell”—a dramatic, guitar-driven track where pulsating rhythms open up to a deeper and broader soundscape.

Driven by the conviction that both art and life are enriched through exchange and collaboration, Los Bitchos & Friends Vol 1 stands as living proof of music’s connective power. This spirit of collaboration will undoubtedly shape the live concert at VEGA, where the audience can look forward to tried-and-true favorites from the band’s high-energy catalog as well as new rhythms from the upcoming album—all infused with unwavering joy of playing and infectious danceability.

Los Bitchos are known for turning concert venues into vibrant dance parties. The band combines Latin American rhythms, fuzzy surf guitars, and hypnotic elements of psychedelia into a musical celebration where language barriers blur and everyone is swept away by rhythm and melody.

When Los Bitchos take the stage at VEGA in 2027, the promise is clear: an evening filled with sunny tones, exuberant musical energy, and a sense of community where everyone is invited to dance. With a new album and renewed joy in playing, Los Bitchos once again demonstrate why they are among the world’s most exciting instrumental acts.
