Luzmila Carpio is a Bolivian singer, who has performed in Spanish and Quechua, and former Bolivia's ambassador to France from 2006 to 2010.
As a small child, she learned the daily songs of the Quechua and Aymara indigenous peoples that inhabit the mountains and valleys of Northern Potosí in Bolivia.
In her early teens she moved to Oruro, and started expressing herself through her songs. Once she went to a radio station and sang the national anthem of Bolivia, the only song in Spanish that she knew. Later on she was selected as the lead singer by a musical band that participated in a contest in Cochabamba. The popular songs she sang in this occasion were designed to meet the demands of the vast popular segments of the population, mostly descendants of indigenous peoples but who already lived in the cities and spoke Spanish. Afterwards, "Siway Azucena", a melody composed by her inspired by the music of Northern Potosí, spread throughout the country, the first truly indigenous song to have widespread popular success.

Contrary to the prevalent trend of modernization, she started looking deeper into the cultural and musical ways of the Andes and singing in Quechua, rather than Spanish. The main ingredient was not to please the audiences that kept growing but rather to use her music as an expression of rebellion against the predominance of western ways of cultural progress over indigenous ones, as a way to show that this so far subordinated world also had a contribution to make, and as a way to build more harmonious relationships among the peoples of the world. In this quest, she authored and coauthored a number of songs for children: "Ima sarata munanki" ("What kind of corn do you want"), "Aylluman kutiripuna" ("Let us return to the community") and many others. These songs became popular with children in rural schools.

Then she went to Paris where her musical evolution continued.

On April 21, 2006, President Evo Morales appointed Luzmila Carpio as Bolivia's ambassador to France (Mission that lasted four years, until March 31, 2010).

Become a fan of Rio Mira:

www.facebook.com/RioMiraMarimba/

Co-produced by Grammy nominee Ivis Flies and Grammy winner Ivan Benavides, Rio Mira is a marimba supergroup with Afro-Pacific binational heritage consisting of some of the most in-demand and respected musicians from Colombia and Ecuador. Their music is the sonic rejoining of the region known as El Pacífico Sur, one connected by history, ecology and culture and divided by the national borders of Ecuador and Colombia.

The people throughout this area have similar music, food, speech, fashion, and background, and it is no coincidence that the band takes its name from the Mira River that flows across these borders, connecting rather than dividing people and cultures. This area is home to a great many people of African descent and the rhythms of Africa have become entwined with the lilt and grooves of Colombia and Ecuador. Marimba music has become firmly established, a sound so sacred it was added to UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2015.

Marimba Del Pacifico is a beguiling showcase of this protected sound, a celebration of a unique cultural heritage found nowhere else on the planet, by a band of young musicians keeping this strong tradition alive.

Llorona Records and Fondo Acción present: Tio Guachupesito, first single of Canalon de Timbiqui's highly anticipated new record De mar y río to be released in 2019

Nidia Gongora’s legendary roots ensemble Canalón de Timbiquí  brought together three generations of pacific jungle marimba de chonta music masters together for their most ambicious record to date: De mar y río.

Tio Guachupesito written by Antero Agualimpia is an anthem throughout the pacific coast of Colombia, a deep and sweet musical treasure that can be heard amongst afro descendent communities from (north to south) Nuquí to Tumaco. Canalón de Timbiqui’s version takes us to the core of Timbiqui’s religious syncretysm. Lead singer Nidia Gongora’s astonishing opening closes with a mighty statement that serves as a calling for the full ensemble to burst into an enchanting roots music celebration: 

En el cielo pintan santos, yo también quiero pintar
Pintaron un santo negro y hoy lo vamo' a celebrar

(Saints are being painted, I want to paint too
A black saint was finally painted and we are going to celebrate)

ESPAÑOL

Llorona Records y Fondo Acción presentan: Tio Guachupesito, primer sencillo del esperado nuevo disco de  Canalón de Timbiquí  De Mar y Rio, que será lanzado el primer semestre del  2019.

Tio Guachupesito, compuesta por Antero Agualimpia, es un tesoro de la tradición del Pacífico Colombiano con diferentes interpretaciones que se escuchan desde Nuquí hasta Tumaco. En la versión de Canalón de Timbiquí, la canción embruja desde el inicio con la estremecedora voz de Nidia Góngora que, acompañada de la marimba, nos lleva a lo más profundo del misticismo Timbiquireño.

En el cielo pintan santos, yo también quiero pintar
Pintaron un santo negro y hoy lo vamo' a celebrar 

Este verso da entrada al ensamble completo que a ritmo de Aguabajo  nos deja claro porqué el grupo liderado por la cantora es uno de los representantes más respetados de la música de marimba del Pacífico colombiano. Tradición, raíz, selva, mar y río hechos música desde Timbiquí Cauca.
