**Unveiling "Cordillera": A Tribute to Ancestry and Resilience**
Mark your calendars for December 10th, as NYC-based Latin-Alternative project, THE KOIWAY, is set to release their highly anticipated new single and lyric video, “Cordillera.” This latest creation revolves around themes of ancestry and resilience, shedding light on the experiences of displacement and the internal struggles we all face. The project, helmed by Chilean musician and producer Victor Vildósola, artfully intertwines Andean folk and modern Latin music, creating a soundscape that is both immersive and poignant.
“Cordillera” features a stirring performance from Héctor Noguera, a revered figure in Latin American arts, who recites a powerful excerpt from “Los Nuevos Pueblos” by Raúl Zurita, an acclaimed poet recognized for his contributions to Ibero-American literature. This collaboration elevates the song, adding emotional depth to the narrative while connecting the personal stories of individuals to broader cultural histories and shared memories.
The track was masterfully crafted by Victor Vildósola and Arturo de las Fuentes, who also contributed vocals. The production resonates with a rich blend of electric bass, guitars, charango, drums, and traditional Andean instruments, creating a textured musical experience that captures the complexity of human emotions and collective identity.
In addition to the single launch, THE KOIWAY will perform live at the NYC Performing Arts Center on December 18th. This concert promises to deliver an engaging showcase that highlights the power of music as a means of fostering connection and celebrating diversity.
In the lead-up to the release, “Cordillera” has already begun to garner attention for its immersive storytelling and socially-conscious themes.
