Live music collective DARUMAS debuts their first single, “Daruma,” an infectious and funky Latin pop jam, arriving via Sony Music Latin, with the message of hope, resilience, and love, just like their band name. Take a listen here.
The song, written and recorded at 5020 Studios in Miami, shares the universal experience of longing and hope, inviting listeners on a journey together: “longing for a better world… health, money, lots of love… and some adventure.” From the infectious rhythms to the soulful vocals, the debut single is a testament to DARUMAS’ artistry and vision.
The electrifying trio, composed of multi-talented musicians Aldana Aguirre, Ceci Leon and Vedala Vilmond, embarks on an infectious new musical journey together. The band blends the sounds across their diverse musical roots – Latin funk, pop, and a touch of old-school charm.
“Darumas is a band formed by three amazing girls,” Vedala emphasizes. “We are three musicians from different parts of the world” Aldana shares “…and three very different backgrounds” Ceci continues, “that are all inspired by similar music, and trying to create something new with one another.”
DARUMAS brings together Aldana, a sought-after bassist from Argentina, who has shared the global stage with acts like Karol G, Luis Fonsi and Fonseca; Ceci, a vocalist from Miami with Cuban roots and a penchant for R&B, also captivates audiences with her electrifying guitar skills, seamlessly blending soulful melodies with fiery riffs; and Vedala, the mesmerizing voice of the group, hailing from Haiti and living in Chile. The mosaic of their cultural influences and musical styles promises a musical experience like no other.
The debut single, “Darumá,” introduces the inspiration behind the DARUMAS band name, drawing inspiration from the Japanese luck charm, symbolizing perseverance and the fulfillment of wishes. True to their name, DARUMAS aims to imbue their music with the same spirit of resilience and positivity that the Daruma embodies.
The band is signed with Sony Music Latin for recordings, Walter Kolm Entertainment for management, TBA Agency for touring and FRAZES CREATIVE for publicity partnerships.
“Darumas is a breath of fresh air for the music industry. Three women, musicians, with an enormous talent that bring an artistic proposal very different from everything else out there. The greatest artists are characterized by being unique and different from the rest. Aldana, Vedala and Ceci can proudly boast just that, a sound and style of their own and with an electrifying live performance, they leave no one indifferent. Their debut is good news for any music lover.” – shares Alex Gallardo, President of Sony Music Latin.
