Grupo Fantasma is back with their fifth studio album, Problemas, produced by Steve Berlin (Los Lobos, Los Super Seven) and set for release on October 30, 2015 on Blue Corn Music.  This is the band’s first studio album since their GRAMMY award-winning 2010 release El Existential.

Although Austin’s music scene changes constantly and rapidly, one band that endures and continues to evolve is Grupo Fantasma. This year marks the 15th anniversary of their first show at the Empanada Parlor in Austin, Texas.

Grupo Fantasma formed in 2000 and is comprised of musicians with Latin, American and Texan roots. Praised as one of the most important independent acts in the Latin genre, they are widely known for their energetic live shows, which NPR describes as “seamless…whenever and wherever they’re on stage.” The 9-piece orchestra has received praise from The Wall Street Journal, Billboard, Huffington Post, and USA Today called the band “Latin-funk masters.”  The band has also seen a wide array of film and TV placements including AMC’s Breaking Bad, the John Sayles’ film Casa de los Babys, Showtime’s hit series Weeds, ABC’s Ugly Betty, NBC’s Law & Order and many others. They have served as the backing band on several occasions for the legendary Prince (ALMA Awards on ABC, Golden Globes, CBS Super Bowl Bash), Fania All–Stars pianist Larry Harlow, Sheila–E, GZA of Wu–Tang Clan, Daniel Johnston, Aaron Freeman of Ween, and indie rock standouts Spoon.
