Afro Peruvian band Novalima has announced a 20-year anniversary U.S. tour starting on August 3rd in Los Angeles, California. The tour playlist will include songs from their previous albums and upcoming new album, La Danza. Novalima features added changes to the live lineup, incorporating Ivon Muñoz, a young Afro Peruvian musician and dancer playing cajon, percussion, and Afro Peruvian tap dancing.
Novalima is thrilled to be back on the road to celebrate with their fans stating, “We’ve been aiming to export Peruvian culture through our music over the past 20 years, and so far we’ve been blessed by playing all over the world and meeting new great artists, who’ve somehow inspired our growth in music and our own artistic evolution. We are proud to be able to still be on the road with our family: our amazing live band, and this year we plan to take over new audiences to spread even more our music to younger crowds through our live concerts, which will be an exhilarating dance experience.”
