LoCura!
The Music – Latin flavored, drawing on influences from Spain, Cuba, Jamaica California. This energetic trio fuses grooves melodies from Reggae, Cuban Son, Flamenco, North American folk...creating a sound we like to call 'reggalicious flamenkito'. Bridging the Old World with the New, LoCura! is original music for the Heart Soul.
In Spanish, the word locura means madness or lunacy. When separated into two words, lo cura means 'it cures it'. The name LoCura is crafted as a fusion between these two ideas. Two words found within the one; the cure found within the madness. During the times when the world is moving too fast to comprehend, we find we need a remedy; music can be that cure. This is the feeling we hope to cultivate through our music; that within the insanity and madness of this crazy life, blossoms the cure- beauty and love- bringing dreams to life, where another world is possible. It is this idea that has inspired us to gather our energies. Our experiences of struggle and strife, and a passion for love and life, have brought us individually and collectively to a place of reflection and direction, a place to release and revive. Throughout history, music has served as a catalyst for change, bringing many diverse ideas and people together. The music of LoCura! is born as we bring together a diversity of genres. The LoCura! sound weaves together Reggae and Flamenco, creating a flavor we like to call 'Reggalicious Flamenkito'.
