The irresistible acoustic groove of Golpe Tierra, which in Spanish means “beating the earth,” bases its sound on just that philosophy. When we all come together to beat the earth with our feet and hands we are truly celebrating the act of community. Nick Moran, Juan Tomas Martinez, Tony Barba and Richard Hildner make up this guerrilla-style ensemble employing the traditional Afro-Peruvian guitar-bass-cajón set-up and embark on a musical journey throughout Latin-America flirting with shades of soul, blues and jazz, playing original and traditional music that is sure to get you out of your seat and dance.
