Formed in 2005 by singer-songwriter Telmary Díaz and multi-instrumentalist David Torrens, the band has been gracing stages for over a decade. With their debut album, "A Diario" (2007), Telmary established their signature sound—a rhythmic fusion of hip-hop, funk, and soul, infused with Cuban folkloric melodies.
Their lyrics, often socially conscious and thought-provoking, explore themes of identity, race, and socio-economic realities in Cuba and beyond. Telmary's powerful vocals, accompanied by Torrens' captivating guitar playing and the band's infectious rhythms, create an electrifying musical experience.
Over the years, Telmary has released a string of critically acclaimed albums, including "Libre" (2010), "Fuerza Arará" (2014), and "Diario de un extraño" (2018). Their collaborations with renowned artists such as Buena Vista Social Club and Juan Luis Guerra have further cemented their international reputation.
With a sound that defies easy categorization and a message that resonates with audiences worldwide, Telmary has become a symbol of Cuban hip-hop's global reach. Their music transcends borders, bridging cultural divides and inspiring a sense of unity.
