The explosive Argentinian percussion ensemble bring their legendary Monday night residency from Buenos Aires to London, for one night only.

La Bomba de Tiempo is a hugely popular energetic percussion ensemble from Argentina. Their shows are based around collective improvisation through a unique sign system, also incorporating audience interaction to make each gig an unforgettable, one-of-a-kind adventure.

Another feature of the shows are the appearances from guest collaborators. The list of famous guests who have joined the band reads like a who's who of contemporary Latin American music, including; Calle 13, Café Tacuba, Jorge Drexler, Natalia Lafourcade, Totó La Momposina, Cultura Profética, Los Gaiteros de San Jacinto, Arnaldo Antunes, Emir Kusturica, Pedro Aznar, Rubén Rada, Paulinho Moska, Jarabe de Palo, La Pegatina, Hugo Fattoruso, Catupecu Machu, and many more. The band have also enjoyed guest appearances themselves, opening for Carlos Santana at the Dubai Jazz Festival and recently joining Coldplay on stage in front of a packed River Plate stadium in Buenos Aires.

As well as performing around Argentina, the band have also toured in Chile, Brazil, Colombia, Uruguay, Germany, Spain and previously in the UK selling out London's Islington Assembly Hall.
