KVCU Enjoys Combo Chimbita and French Vanilla At SXSW

KVCU went to Austin for SXSW a couple weeks ago, and the station’s Ashley Koett saw sets from AmApAc artists Combo Chimbita and French Vanilla. Of Combo Chimbita, Koett wrote that the band “combines classic Cumbia rhythms and vocals with psych and a bit of punk to craft an absolutely mesmerizing performance.” She was duly impressed by singer Carolina Oliveros, whose hypnotic presence was captivating and emotional. The quartet’s Ahomale is coming out in May, and advance tracks are at radio now. Of French Vanilla, whose debut LP we promoted back in 2017, Koett said, “the show was simply so fun!” Read her full review here, via the Colorado Daily.
