Hi there,
We are Alessandra, Fernando and Armando, from the Venezuelan trio La Pagana Trinidad, and we want to share our most ambitious project with you: the release of our debut album, De Donde Vengo.
Our particular music style has been labeled as The New Cool Guaracha. It blends danceable guaracha and Latin American rhythms along with melodic formulas of swing, blues, and jazz in an atypical and modest format: drums, guitar and vocals.
Despite our recent formation [2014], we’ve been blessed with great opportunities. One of them was to have the renowned Diego El Negro Álvarez as our producer and to be able to work with a team of outstanding music professionals.
We have played both in national and international festivals, sharing with artists such as: Vicentico (Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, McKlopedia, Buena Fe, Caramelos de Cianuro, Aquiles Báez, C4 Trio, El Pollo Brito, Rawayana, Public Disorder , Gaélica, Soledad Bravo, Aditus, Okills, Yordano, Guillermo Carrasco, Daniel Somaró, El Guajeo by Alfredo Naranjo and many others.
In addition, we were awarded as “Best New Artist", “Best World Music Artist” and “Best World Music Song” at the Pepsi Music Awards (2015) after the release of Cosas Cursis, our first single (which we composed, produced and recorded with the help of a couple of dear friends when we started this journey).
Later, in 2017, Amnesty International gave us a recognition as an 'Awareness Emissary' due to our constant support to activities in favor of human rights in Venezuela and the Latin American region.
With the desire to grow and accumulate experiences, we organized a national tour, "Cuando el trío Suena (2015)" and we traveled across Venezuela, which is going through a very critical political, social and economic situation. There’s no institutional support or even fundamental conditions such as water, electricity, medicine, and food.
The minimum salary of a Venezuelan is now equivalent to one dollar (few months after shooting the video); money that can basically afford only one meal for two people in McDonald's. This perhaps summarizes why it has been impossible for us to cover the production costs of our first album, which is quite advanced to this point.
More than ever, we need the support of our friends and family and music lover around the world, especially outside of Venezuela, as we live under a strict exchange control that makes it difficult for us to access foreign currency. With your support, we can afford the mix, the master and the reproduction of this album, which we hope will open more doors and opportunities in this journey that’s just beginning.
10% of the proceeds will be donated to 'Opciones para Venezuela', an organization dedicated to providing tools and training Venezuelans towards entrepreneurship and the quest for solutions to local problems.
