Che Sudaka is a four-piece band, composed of Argentines and Colombians living in Barcelona, Spain. The band defines itself as punk reggae party while using rhythms inspired by hip-hop and ska.

Name

The name comes from putting together the words "che", that in Mapuche language means "people", and "sudaca", which is a derogatory term used in Spain to refer to South Americans.

Music

At the outset of the 2000s, a group of Hispanic American immigrants established Che Sudaka in Barcelona. The group play "mestizaje music" (Latin Alternative), a style combining traditional South American and Spanish styles with influences from ska, reggae, rock and world music. They have collaborated on projects with Manu Chao and Amparanoia.
