But we managed to bring out what\u2019s awesome about the music,\u201d said Guill\u00e9n, talking about the position they have taken as a group in presenting Nicaraguan culture to new generations.<\/p>\n<p>La Cuneta has travelled and performed in countries such as the United States, El Salvador, Venezuela and Costa Rica, the last being where they participated in the International Festival of the Arts. This summer they are expected to start their first tour of Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the group has released three albums: \u201cEl Zafarrancho,\u201d \u201cAmor Fritanguero\u201d and \u201cMondongo,\u201d the latter will be available for free with the purchase of a ticket to their next concert in San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Mej\u00eda and Guill\u00e9n, the other members of the band include Cesar Rodriguez, Augusto Mejia, Fabio Buitrago and Omar Suazo.<\/p>\n<p><em>La Cuneta Son Machin will perform at the Great American Music Hall, 859 O&#8217;farrell St., San Francisco on Feb. 13.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To the rhythms of cumbia with folklore, culture, idiosyncrasies, wittiness and certainly a touch of Nicaraguan slang, La Cuneta Son Machin has earned the respect and pride of representing the Central American nation of Nicaragua in the upcoming Latin Grammy music awards.
