“I remember a lot of the festival in Adelaide, WOMADelaide,” he recalls. “We're going to be releasing singles this year this next one is going to be out on Valentine's Day and it's a very interesting track I really like because it came out of Venezuelan tambores rhythm and it ended up like a K-pop, really beautiful.” Los Amigos Invisibles' first Australian venture in a decade will bring the band back to WOMADelaide, a festival that holds great significance for Julio when he thinks about how far they have come. “It's cheaper for the band economy and I think you can focus all your media, social media and everything on every song. So after ten studio records, we're going to be working with singles. “Right now, everything is a single, you know? Not many people have time to listen to a whole record. “'Tócamela' was a good experiment in that we put it out as a single,” Julio explains.

we were also DJs trying to make the scene in Caracas in the '90s.” Los Amigos Invisibles released their latest single, 'Tócamela', last year and Julio says that having done studio albums since their debut in 1995, the band has decided to release all their new music this year as singles rather than produce a full album. “So we try to mix everything together to have a unique sound so by the end it is like the Los Amigos sound. “We were huge fans of the funk from the '70s – a lot of disco we also like a lot of salsa and the Latin beat. “We try to not be an imitation of what's on the radio,” bandleader and vocalist Julio Briceño says. Hailing from Caracas in Venezuela, Los Amigos Invisibles are the darlings of the international club circuit producing an incredible blend of funk and Latin rhythms that spans the spectrum of the genre.
For the first time in ten years, Australian audiences will be privy to one of the most electrifying acts to come out of Latin America – Los Amigos Invisibles.
