Bio

Led by Peruvian American multi-instrumentalist, Carlos Bocanegra, "BOCANEGRA" exploded on the South American scene in the 2000's. Working with Post-Punk / Industrial auteur, Martin Atkins (NIN, PIL, Killing Joke, Ministry), BOCANEGRA developed a sound that is both aggressive and sensual, with songs sung both in English and Spanish, making them an incredibly unique act. 

Their first single "Love (the) Machine" became an MTVLA and VH1LA staple in 2012, reaching #14 on the Peruvian Modern Rock Charts. "Sombras" followed soon to similar acclaim with Grammy Nominee, Percy Cespedez, at the helm of the video.

After a long hiatus, BOCANEGRA recently announced their return with new singles slated for 2026, starting with a remaster of their song "Charlemagne."
