Forget Juanes, forget Shakira and even put down your Carlos Vives album.

There’s far more to Colombian musicthan just these artists and limiting yourself to just these is to do the independent music scene an injustice.

While many may have heard ofBomba Estereo and ChocQuibTownfrom FIFA, or their various appearances on MTV Award shows, this is just scratching the surface of what’s on offer and, as these bands get bigger, it’s getting harder and harder to see them live.

Here’s an eclectic selection of bands from all over the country you should check out while you’re in Colombia, especially if you get the chance to go to a gig.

1. Sidestepper

Sidestepper blend traditional Colombian rhythms with modern electronica to create music that’s perfect for post, pre and during your night out. It might not be immediately catchy, but it has a way of sticking with you.

2. Systema Solar

Insanely catchy, Systema Solar are like a more experimental and more electronic-focused ChocQuibTown. Hit song ‘Mi Kolombia’ will stick in your mind for weeks after hearing it. On top of that, they`re bloody good live.
