La Marraqueta

[1] While they remained in Cometa, Pablo Lecaros and Pedro Greene had worked with the singer Isabel Parra on one of their first national tours, once their ban on entering the country had been lifted.

La Marraqueta was started as a music workshop in 1992 and in 1994 it entered the programs of the Jazz Club with its portfolio of original creations framed within what was called "Creole fusion".

Consequently, La Marraqueta was strongly framed in the music developed by the plugged jazz models of Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea and especially by the ensemble Weather Report.

The quartet is defined from an original and unpublished base, expressed in a Creole fusion that emphasizes musical elements investigated and rescued by the same members of the band from the roots of national folklore.

[3] In January 2017 they participate in the International Providence Jazz Festival in Santiago, along with Matt Wilson Quintet and Dave Liebman, where they also announce the beginning of the production of the more than once postponed fourth album.
