     A Roots Reggae band with punk rock beginnings from East Los Angeles, California...
     Formed in 2005, by cousins Guillermo and Daniel Tejeda, this resurgent Roots Reggae ensemble draws from all aspects of the inner-city experience to create an original sound that resonates with all people- making everybody who is listening move their feet!
     Born in their hometown of East Los Angeles (Este LA)- Pachamama Estela has built a social buzz and an energetic vibe on stage that is impossible to deny. A funky, soulful mix of worldly roots reggae- combining the best aspects of each genre to create rhythmic movements, which not only reflect the diversity of their group, but of the melting-pot city they call home.

Pachamama Estela has its beginnings within the social activist music scene in Los Angeles, CA., their powerful sound and meaningful lyrics are proof to that. Powerful and conscious words touch on universal themes such as social change, human solidarity and most importantly world love. Keeping a upbeat and inviting musical format which allows their listeners to digest difficult issues and ultimately become agents of change through musical expression.

Seeing Pachamama Estela perform live is watching them breathe life into their audiences. Crowds put down their phones, pick up their heads and join in on the conversation. In their career, Pachamama Estela has had the pleasure of sharing the stage with such legendary acts as American funk favorites WAR, Latin sensations Quinto Sol, Cultura Profetica, Panteon Rococo and La Maldita Vecindad, and Reggae artists such as Estelle, Alika, Yami Bolo, Barrington Levy and most honorably the late great Jamaican icon Alton Ellis.

In July of 2014, with the help of producer Andrew Williams of TriCoast Studios, Pachamama Estela released the first half of their long-awaited studio debut, a two part 'Extended Play' series. Making studio versions of fan favorites like Conocer and Brown Skin Girl available for the first time. The band has also been hard at work in the studio producing new music with social commentary to keep up with it's listeners and important social current events. On August 25th, they made the single Black Sun – A Song for Michael Brown available for free download in support of the peaceful protests in Ferguson, MO. In October 2014, as part of the 'Chant Down the Walls' movement, Pachamama Estela performed live in front of the Los Angeles Metropolitan Detention Center for a deportation relief demonstration in support of immigrant students and families.

Pounding out sound as heavy as their namesake, Pachamama Estela uses music to embrace and celebrate the stories their community has to tell in an unrelenting mission to inspire change, share community, and practice unconditional love.

In 2015, Pachamama Estela plans to release new music and collaborate with other artists!
