WE ARE TRIBUBU

TRIBUBU live in Heidelberg TRIBUBU is a World Music band based in Heidelberg, Germany, bringing together four musicians with roots in Ivory Coast, England, Cantabria and Mallorca. Four cultures, different paths and one shared passion for music.

TRIBUBU live in Austria Their sound is born from the fusion of rumba, African rhythms and folk. This is where their musical identity comes from: Rumba · Afro · Folk. Spanish guitar, balafon and djembe, bass with effects and synthesizers, percussion, vocals and touches of rap come together in an organic blend full of groove and energy. On stage, this mixture turns into a celebration shared with the audience, where spontaneity, rhythm and connection with the crowd are just as important as the songs themselves.

TRIBUBU live in Oldenburg Through their music, TRIBUBU tells stories about life, people and the things that bring us together. Their songs travel beyond languages and borders, creating a space where everyone, no matter where they come from, can feel at home.

TRIBUBU believes in music as a powerful way to bring people together, build bridges between cultures and give a voice to what we feel and believe. A space of freedom to share truths, emotions and joy, regardless of language or where we come from. Because music belongs to no single culture and needs no translation: it belongs to everyone who feels it.

PEYOTERO CRÓNICO

We all have that one peyotero friend: never in a hurry, always saying "go with the flow" and living in a world of their own. While the rest of us overcomplicate life, they seem to have it all figured out. And that's exactly what this song is about. 🌵
