Artist Detailed Info: Facundo Swing

Facundo Swing is a Berlin and Brussels-based "Latin Alternative" project with Nicaraguan roots. Created by childhood friends Miguel Lee and Sebastian Barberena, the project combines influences ranging from Rawayana, Bomba Estéreo, and Tainy to Parcels and the Grateful Dead.

Their music is fresh, incorporating genre-blending sounds that reflect both their experiences, their connection to Latin rhythm. It's basically two friends making music they've always wished to make together.

The band's debut album, Refrescate el Chip, brings together six Nicaraguan collaborators in a colorful journey through Latin genres. Inspired by the beach, rum, everyday beauty, and good times, the record captures the warmth and irreverence of contemporary Nicaraguan culture.

Funnily enough, the plastic chair as their album cover came before Bad Bunny.
