The trio called Fémina hails from the Patagonian town of San Martín de los Andes in Argentina. Sisters Sofia “Toti” and Clara “Wewi” Trucco and their friend Clara Miglioli combine influences of rap and other genres like reggae, cumbia, and funk with Latin American folk instruments to create a singular sound, inspired by outside influences and their beautiful hometown.

Christine and the Queens’ first album, Chaleur Humaine, was met with critical acclaim for both the French and English versions, and she headlined at Glastonbury festival in the UK in 2016. Her 2018 album, Chris, undeniably reminiscent of ‘80s pop, is the more upbeat sequel, bursting with sexual energy and heavy on danceable tunes. Her latest EP, La vita nuova, came out in 2020, featuring the single “People, I’ve been sad,” which feels like a perfect song for the feelings we’ve felt during the pandemic.

This band smoothly traverses the boundaries between genre and style, all while keeping their unique vocals and harmonies. The laid-back, casual vibe they bring to their videos and songs makes Perotá Chingó’s music great to listen to on a warm day or while relaxing.
