This innovative trio of women creates a Colombian Caribbean sound with attitude and a unique charisma that fully represents new Colombian music. Inspired by traditional sounds, gaita flutes, drums and sung dances, La Perla pays tribute to cultural legacies while being open to other influences. In their more than 10 years together, they have circulated through concert halls, bars, cultural centres and festivals, where they have played both traditional music and their own repertoire. In 2015, they were winners of the Festival Nacional de Gaita competition, only the second group of women to win the award, and the first group from Bogota. In 2018, their single ‘Bruja’, which was used in the Netflix series, Siempre Bruja (Always a Witch), brought great attention to the group.
