Press Kit Biography

Los Kamer has a 10 year trajectory in the music scene. All of the band members are born in the Ixtapal ca and Chalco municipalities of the State of Mexico. Like gypsies they have been musical nomads whose sound has reached Europe, where they have toured three times since 2015. Each tour longer than the previous one. Some of the countries they shared their music with are Hungary, The , Germany, Italy, , Poland, France, Switzerland and many others. They were able to present themselves at important festivals such as: Fête de la Musique (DE) and Boomtown Festival (UK). They have two records. The first is called “Indestructible” (2016), the second “The Kamer” (2017). At this moment they are recording a third album called “Tlazokamati”. Los Kamer is an instrumental band and all their compositions are original. Their music is influenced by e.g. Emir Kusturica, Fanfare Ciocărlia, Taraf de Haïdouks, Manu Chao and others. The sound of Los Kamer is a combination of Jazz, Swing, Western, Balkan, Klezmer, Gypsy, Mexican traditional music and Latin rhythms. In Mexico BalkanMex music has flourished. Its festive character is the main reason why Los Kamer adopted this genre. Los Kamer accomplishes their own original sound by combining the rhythms of Balkan with other genres. Mission

Los Kamer wants to grant awesome music to the people of the entire world. When the band plays they put all their energy in their performance. The biggest mission they have is to make sure that everyone dances has fun and happiness for everyone. Another mission of them is to learn about other cultures and share Mexican culture with other people. Los Kamer believes everyone in this world is equal to each other. This is another important message they want to spread using their music.

Los Kamers highlight of the year 2018 was the festival Boomtown Fair in Winchester, U.K. Boomtown Fair is one of the biggest festivals in the United Kingdom. This festival displays itself as a city with complex labyrinths, streets and corridors. Their goal is for people to become their inner character and create a story together with the festival and everyone else.

During their performance at the Old Town District of Boomtown Fair, they filled the entire main stage with dancing and smiling people. ForLos Kamer this was the most wonderful experience they ever had. past gigs contact
