More than 100 gigs in a year around Europe and 80.000 free downloads of its first album, Benvinguts al llarg viatge («Welcome to the long journey»). Txarango is the new and genuine phenomenon of Barcelona Sound, the reference for Europe’s urban music. Born in the Raval, the city’s most multicultural district where other music bands like Ojos de Brujo and 08001 arose, Txarango plays an energetic live fusion sound that mixes reggae, latin music and native rhythms.

The message is clear: energy, joy and celebration.
