THE SPANISH FLIES
New Video
Check out the music video for our latest single "Salida"
About the song:
"We came up with this song in the dead of winter. We wanted to make a song that would help us remember the tropical vibes of my homeland, latin america.
That's how "Salida" (escape/exit) came to be. A song to make you feel the latin grooves, influenced by Peruvian psychedelic cumbia and chicha from the 70's with a touch of indie rock.
We hope you enjoy it as much a we do. "
