From Latin American rock trio Los Sindes comes ‘Playa C’. The song, to me at least, is a breath of fresh air. Having been entirely a novice in the genre, Playa C has opened up a world to me that I never properly gave dues to. There’s a community feeling behind it, a kind of togetherness that the sound and melody are able to evoke so effortlessly. There’s also bundles of nostalgia and warmth that’s packed wonderfully in between. The song as a whole has you foot tapping, grooving to its melody, and singing the chorus line at the top of your lungs.
I can’t wait to hear more from this outfit, and also give the genre its dues. For anyone previously unacquainted with Latin Rock, from my ears at least, this is a brilliant place to start.
