Spaghetti Cumbia, Los Angeles’ own high-octane Western Cumbia Rock outfit, has been captivating fans with their signature blend of traditional cumbia rhythms, rock, punk, and Western movie soundtrack influences since their 2016 formation. Founded by rhythm guitarist and vocalist Pedro Aguirre, the five-piece band has honed their craft over the years, solidifying their lineup with the additions of co-frontman and percussionist Marcel Campos, lead guitarist Bobby Guerrero, bassist Paulo Paredones, and drummer Adolfo Mercado Jr.
Building on influences from Fito Olivares and Los Mirlos to Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, and beyond, Spaghetti Cumbia has crafted a sound that is distinctly their own. As first and second-generation Angelenos, each member brings their own unique style, traditions, and art to the table, resulting in a musical melting pot that seamlessly blends Mexican heritage with rock-style instrumentation, emulating traditional cumbia sounds with guitars, processors, and unconventional elements like harmonicas and ankle shakers.
With a string of successful performances under their belt, including collaborations with Keith Warren of The Addicts and appearances at major events like the Brooklyn Cumbia Festival and “El Velorio” The Day of the Dead Experience, Spaghetti Cumbia’s momentum is now at an all-time high, as the band works towards recording their debut album and expanding their reach through touring, much to the delight of their diverse and growing fanbase.
