Info update:
Julio Pérez and Cristina Leguía will guest on support vocals for a couple of tracks, and guitarist Julio Caipo will do similarly making interesting duets with the band's own Alonso Herrera. Caipo was one of the co-producers and musical arrangers for the new album "Mundos Bizarros".
 
  Kind regards.

No, he's not, but the separation took place in August 2007, it's been long ago. The reasons were not really musical, but interpersonal, it was more about personality clashes. Anyway, the influence left by Pérez seems to be eternal, since the band's crescient involvement in the fusion focus for their soudn and compositions remains a powerful source up to this day (the "Mundos Bizarros" album).

Well, I'm quite new with Flor de Loto. But, thanks for the answer.
 
I haven't heard the new album yet. I'm just into Madre Tierra and it's great!
Mundos Bizarros is close...

It was great!! 
The band is tighter tha never, and also more aggressively driven without stopping to expand their progressive peculiar statement.
Already have their latest album, which I have just included in the Archives. This has to be their best so far!!  
 
NEXT STOP:
Tuesday, June 2nd
La Noche de Barranco
Avda. Bolognesi, 307  (Barranco - Lima)

         Kind regards.
 
 
There are also the joyfully Celtic-tinged 'Danza Celta 2' and the romantic 'Nubes Oscuras' (with a deep fusionesque edge). This albums really promises to be quite big: FLOR DE LOTO is already a veteran band... and none of their albums has been reviewed at DPRP yet!  Ha ha ha...
 
Well, in a couple of minutes off I go to the gig, but I guess I'll go to cafeteria nearby before the concert so I can enjoy a pancake and a fruit juice.
 
        Kind regards.

I'm glad you enjoyed the music made by these brillant band that refurbished the art-rock scene in Peru. Here's a great reminder of the band's performance at Crescendo Festival 2008, in France: www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWyI5UwCXH4 playing 'Atlantis', one of the tracks included in their forthcoming "Mundos Bizarros" album.

Got my ticket now! For 40 soles you get your actual ticket, and then, in the Teatro Plaza ISIL you get the new album as well.
