Tango meets metal - A new single out by Erick Avila

[2022-07-07]   
ONE OF CHILE’S BEST-KNOWN METAL GUITARIST IN FINLAND
- COLD SCANDINAVIAN METAL MEETS HOT LATIN AMERICAN RHYTHMS IN A NEW ORIGINAL TANGO SINGLE 'Hoy Bailo Un Tango Gris'

Erick Avila moved to Finland two years ago for the love of the local music scene and he is now building his new career there. Erick Avila is one of the best-known metal guitarists in Chile. He is also a composer, producer and for a long time he has been the leader of a Chilean metal band Six Magics.
Avila found a band bearing his own name with three Finnish musicians. The group is doing now something no one has ever done before – combining metal and the hot rhythms of Latin America such as the Chilean cueca, Brazilian bossanova and Cuban salsa.

Last year Erick Avila band released their first single 'Songo', an energetic song that combines salsa and metal. Now the band presents a new Metal-Tango 'Hoy Bailo un Tango Gris'. The passion of the tango meets the Nordic metal in this new way to make a Tango.

Avila’s former band Six Magics has toured also in Europe in addition to Latin America. They have headlined concerts for thousands of people and supported bands like Nightwish and Tarja Turunen. Avila has a vast fan base in Chile for over 20 years of career and he has been an inspiration source for many guitarists in the area.
Now the new band has gained great reception by Chilean and Finnish audience due to the cross cultural videos they published in social media showing how the project and music were born so far away from Chile and how the band leader, Avila himself blended into the Finnish culture.
