Los Amigos Invisibles 

Live reviews

• Los Amigos Invisibles

  Seven years ago or so I attended perhaps the first ever show of Los Amigos Invisibles in Mexico City: it was in a night club with perhaps 100 people in it, it was a beautiful intimate show with a great band! From there till' today they are able to fill two Teatro Metropolitan in full, so they have made a lot of progress with their fans base in here! And then, they have come many many times, all the times (but one) I has been always there, it is a great show, it is like going to a party, you dance or you are dead! The sound of their music is something that I cannot describe, a simplistic way of defining it would be a strange mix between funk, salsa, and disco, but they have their own description for their music, it is "The new sound of the Venezuelan gozadera", and I agree. This particular show was different from previous ones in that the first quarter of it, it was like acoustic, it was a different way to appreciate their music. There were also more musicians with more instruments. The last 3 quarters it was not acoustic anymore, and the fact that there were still more musicians playing different instruments made their sound a lot more richer in their live performance compared with all the previous shows I have seen, and I can only say that it was great!! There is the other side of the coin as well: Julio Briceño (lead singer) and Maurimix (latin percusion) are at the core of the band, and they were there, El Catire (bass) was there as well, but I missed DJ Afro (guitar) and Armandito (organ)!! First time I am in a live performance without them, and they are definitively missed!! They are part of the show!! So the person in the guitar was, mmmm, ok, but the one at the organ made that we miss Armandito even more!! Still, the show was great, I only hope that DJ Afro and Armandito are back for the next show, I will be there too!!

• Enter the Venezuelan disco funk band, Los Amigos Invisible, who sport Latin rhythms throughout their sound. This is one of the hardest working touring band in the world visiting 60 countries. They are from Caracas in Venezuela, and have been working on their sound since the year 1991. They are famed for being Venezuela’s only “dance band”, also the huge label EMI caught onto their brilliance and got right behind them, releasing their debut album, A Typical and Autoctonal Venezuelan Dance Band. Tonight it is all about celebrating what they have achieved over the last twenty years, including a Grammy Award in 2010. Tonight, their amazing caliber is no surprise to this fantastically responsive audience who really do get behind the six-piece sensation. Of course, they perform a slew of their hits from across the last two decades, but they dwell quite a lot on their opening album as they are celebrating twenty years since it was released. “Siente” and “Porno Songs” are the songs that make up the encore.

• It was great. The band has amazing energy and the singer is fantastic, sang the female voice of Vivire Para Ti and nailed it. Very kind and played the audience a few times, tricked us into fun jokes, it was really a good time. Would watch them again and again!!

• Great Concert! They are always fun to watch. Good ambience, good spirits at bars, good snacks and good sound.

  Me and My Wife really enjoy it. Not the first time we go see them and definitely not our last.
