CHICHA is the name of a corn-based liquor favored by the Incas in
pre-colombian days. Chicha is also the name of a South American
music craze which started out in the late 70's in the Peruvian
Amazon. Cumbias amazonicas, as they were first called, were loosely
inspired by Colombian accordion-driven cumbias but soon incorporated
the distinctive sounds of Andean melodies, some Cuban son, and
the psychedelic sounds of surf guitars, farfisa organs and moog
synthesizers. The group draws its personnel from barbes regulars
Bebe Eiffel, One Ring Zero and Las Rubias del norte.
