The group has been appeared at all the major hungarian festivals and in many alternative clubs. The musical world of Tumba y Quema is based on Colombian and Afro-Caribbean rhytms, spiced with a wide varitey of global music influences and this Latin spirit is empowered by modern beats of rock, reggae, hip-hop and afro-beat. Their music always radiates the joie de vivre characteristic of the Caribbean, a melting pot of races and cultures. In the concept of Unity in Diversity the group experiments with the rhytm and style of the world’s cultures that makes its unique sound.

Their songs are composed by Dávid Dely, the leader and percussionist of the group. Dávid is a musician, composer, multi-instrumentalist, founder of Tumba y Quema. His experience starts within his family, in Millero Congo as a percussionist. Later he takes part in several musical projects with many other musicians as well as folkloric, experimental and modern groups. After moving to Hungary in the recent years, he is dedicated to compose, produce and play music for different types of productions and artists with divers styles both acoustic and elecrtonic.

The secret of Tumba y Quema resides in that the modern sound doesn’t cover up the the traditional Afro-Caribbean folkloric roots.
