BALVTHS
By Charlotte Stace
BALTHVS, one of the most exciting groups in modern psychedelia, comes to play live at Sala La Nau. Pronounced ball + thus, the trio is made up of Balthazar (guitar), Johanna (bass), and Santiago (drums).
Colombian natives, they bring a beautiful relaxing tapestry of psychedelic sounds along with grooves and global rhythms and melodies from Africa, Turkey, South America and beyond. The result is an instrumental milieu of hallucinogenic funk, cumbia, and Anatolian rock and surf. To date they’ve released four studio albums, their latest being Harvest (2024).
They've performed at some of the biggest rock music festivals in Colombia (Rock al Parque), and toured extensively in the United States (gracing SXSW three times, Outside Lands and Austin City Limits), as well as Europe. While their sound is completely unique, if you like bands such as Khruangbin, Los Bitchos, Altın Gün, and LA LOM, then you’ll love BALTHVS.
