PANAMANIAN ARTISTS

ROMULO CASTRO & GRUPO TUIRA
romuloyeltuira

The name of Grupo Tuira comes from the biggest river that tours its waters at the Pacific Ocean of Darien province.

As this river is the main communication bridge between the isolated and multicultural Darien province, the Tuira music delves into musical and poetic Panamanian roots, focusing on the Third World music sounds, and becoming a bridge for the classic and contemporary styles. The result is a particular diversity of influences that can be defined as latin fusion.

Also a historian and publicist, Romulo Castro is a well-known musician that writes lyrics and the melody of his own songs, which usually reflect people’s problems and their hope as well as mirrors a particular vision of the day-to-day life.
