Los Jaivas (1963 - ) is a well-known Chilean folk/progressive rock band.
The Parra brothers (Gabriel, drums Claudio, piano, and Eduardo, electric piano) met Mario Mutis (bass) and Eduardo “Gato” Alquinta (guitars and lead vocals) in their childhood and started to play music for fun. They became prominent in Viña del Mar, playing at many gigs with a bossa-nova/bolero style. The former name of the band was High & Bass. However, most of their fans believed they were called “Jaibas” (crabs). After a while they decide to correct their name and definitely change it to Los Jaivas.
After a first phase characterized by a of more tropical sound they began to blend styles, experimenting with hippie sound, progressive rock and avant-garde jazz. Their most recognized feature it’s their blending of styles with the traditional sounds -and instruments- of the region.
Discography:
* El Volantin

No hay grupo similar a Los Jaivas... Y totalmente de acuerdo con ikarus999, Alturas de Machu Picchu es el mejor disco de rock latinoamericano. Te hace partícipe de la naturaleza, de la historia y de la literatura... y todo con solamente 7 hermosas y fabulosas creaciones musicales... =D
