New Música: Los Amigos Invisibles Return

By Simone Hilliard

True to their name, we haven't seen or heard from Los Amigos Invisibles since this time last year when the alternative Venezuelan band released their eighth studio album Commercial and performed at 2009's Latin Alternative Music Conference.

However, this funky, acid jazz-influenced fusion banda is back with, you guessed it, another New York showcase when they co-headline New York's Central Park Summer Stage this Saturday (July 31). That's not the only thing they have going on this weekend; the band will also shoot their music video for “Vivire Para Ti,” along with co-star Mexican rocker Natalia Lafourcade.

So, where have they been? The self described "Jamiroquai meets Santana" banda have been hitting the European festival circuit performing at the likes of Brussels' Couleur Cafe and Spain's Pirineo South Festival. The band also touched down at Tennessee's Bonnaroo festivities in June.

More importantly, what's next for the dance making music mavens? Before their NY show, el grupo will hit Philly this Thursday (July 29) and will venture to Chicago to play Lollapalooza alongside Lady Gaga, Arcade Fire, MGMT, and the Strokes next month.

Los Amigos are also currently working on re-releasing their Grammy award winning album Commercial with seven brand new tracks.

Looks like we'll be seeing much more of our disco friendly Amigos in the near future!
