Capítulo 70: In this episode of Ocu-Pasión, I had the pleasure of hosting Maria Paz and Gary Galapagos from Mariposas Galacticas, a band that defies musical boundaries with their unique blend of Cumbia-Klezmer & Punk. Formed in the spring of 2023 in West Philly, the band's fusion of Andean-American and Latinx Punk elements serves as the cornerstone of their distinct sound.

Mariposas Galacticas is not your typical band; they boast an ensemble of 10-12 musicians and incorporate a mix of cultures including Indigenous/Ecuadorian roots & Jewish-American heritage/Klezmer elements into their performances. Their music is amplified by unique instruments, such as the haunting Saw player, contributing to their authentic orchestral Cumbia sound.

Beyond the music, Mariposas Galacticas sees their art as a tool for liberation and healing. They actively support local organizations and causes through their performances. The band aims to spread joy and healing through their music, leaving audiences with a profound sense of unity and inspiration. Mariposas Galacticas reminds us that music transcends borders, connecting us through the universal language of melody and emotion.
