Superaquello

About

Formed in 1997, Superaquello is the brainchild of composers Eduardo Alegría and Francis Pérez. Their music resonates with traces of traditional pop, experimental electronic music, straight up rock n’ roll and puerto-rican folk. Superaquello is one of the most celebrated acts in Puerto Rico’s underground scene. Alegría and Pérez initially met at the University of Puerto Rico and began a musical collaboration which spawned projects like ALPACA, Mataril el Bótico, Infamia All-Stars and Mup Siqui Ta. Superaquello’s personnel includes singer Patricia Dávila, Jorge Castro on guitar and Pablo Santiago on keyboards and programming. Lately they’ve incorporated live drums and bass guitar, by Eduardo Martínez and Doel Delgado, respectively. The band has played for international audiences at LAMC (Latin Alternative Music Conference) in New York City and Chicago’s FOCO Festival. The band's influences include Kate Bush, Brian Eno, Rufus Wainwright, Kraftwerk, Stereolab, Talking Heads, Rafael Cortijo, El Trio Matamoros, Stereolab and The Cocteau Twins.
