Born & raised in the deep outskirts of Mexico City, the Gama brothers are keeping alive the legacy of marimba music running through their family with their latest project, Son Rompe Pera. While firmly rooted in the tradition of this historic instrument, their fresh take on this folk icon challenges its limits as never before, moving it into the garage/punk world of urban misfits
Son Rompe Pera is a Mexican fusion band based in Naucalpan, a suburb of Mexico City. Primarily based on cumbia they integrate to their concept the use of Mexican marimba music traditional in the folkloric of their country and such other genres as danzón, rock, punk, ska and others.
