Araukaaria brings Latin American psychedelia to the Baltic: an Argentine-Estonian six-piece from Viljandi, led by Buenos Aires-born songwriter José “Pepi” Prieto. Sung in Spanish and English, the songs move from quiet, close arrangements to long electric builds, rooted in Argentine rock nacional, from Charly García to Mi Amigo Invencible, with a touch of folk.
The band takes its name from the araucaria, a tree sacred to the Mapuche. Read Pepi’s story behind the name →
The self-titled debut album, Araukaaria, arrives 2 April 2027.
No upcoming shows right now. New dates soon.
