Have You Heard: Kumbia Killers

Artist/Band: Kumbia Killers

Name: Emiliano Beltzer

When did you start making music and why? I started to make music in bands when I was 18, but I really started to make music before that, at the music school where I was studying.

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Roar, powerful, modern, traditional 

If you could only listen to one album forevermore, what would it be and why? Only one!!! That's a tough one... I'll probably choose  AC/DC's Back In Black. It's a key factor in developing my love for music to the point of actually wanting to make music. 

Greatest rock'n'roll moment of your career to date? Carrying drum kits, amplifiers, guitars and other, etc on push bikes to go to rehearse. It's not on the glam side, but it certainly requires some rock and roll kinda attitude. 

Why should people come and see your band? Because there's something irresistible about cumbia. And you can only understand this by coming to one of our gigs.

When and where for your next gig? Belleville (Globe Alley, Melbourne CBD), Saturday 19 from 9pm onwards, with special guest DJ Saca La Mois.
