Monsieur Periné: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
14,432,074
Published 2016-03-04
Monsieur Periné hails from Colombia, a country known for its Afro-Colombian cumbia, as well as New York-style salsa. Instead, however, the band has embraced 1920s-era, guitar-driven jazz from the U.S. The unlikely inspiration has resulted in a large and international following, as well as a Latin Grammy not too long ago: Monsieur Periné was named 2015's Best New Artist.
Words don't do this band justice. Play the video and discover Monsieur Periné's magic for yourself.

This is the best tiny desk concert going. I don't speak Spanish. This isn't my favorite genre. But man, this group, their energy, this performance. Absolute magic and should be on display to the world. Just fantastic music for anyone to listen to. Well deserved success coming their way.

This band is the best way to explain Colombian culture to the world. We sit in the middle of this continent, where from north to south: jazz, blues, rock & roll, bolero, rancheras, cumbia and tropical music come together.

Una banda muy infravalorada. Debería tener mucho más protagonismo en la escena musical nacional. Son todos muy buenos músicos, derrochan talento por donde se miren. Cata, la joya de la corona ❤
