You need to find some south America metal heads to ask that too, I'm familiar with very few ,Angra, Kikos, old band Sepultra, just hear Takes from the Porn, they were South American musicians with metal sludge CEO Stevie Rachelle singing vocals, it was pretty good, hit you tube , bound to find something good
I would rather suggest to give a chance to students or folks in your locality who are finding some stage to perform on.
Believe me they will give their 10000% as it's for themselves too !!!!! And not just money that matters!!!. That's where your job of finding a descent and dedicated band comes in. Spread a word and see who are ready to do anything to perform at your place. Some hard working band w

I am a bit frustrated that people always skip Andean Music of the Andes region. It a bit complicated because the sound varies by region and group but basically it can use a charango, Zamponas or pan flutes and drums including Bongo drums and even accordions and other instruments. Some bands mix Cumbia with the Andina or Andean sound. It varies by region which includes Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. Bands include Los Askis, Savia Andina, Group Saya, KJarkas, Sukay, Inkuyo and more. But it is more than these bands as in Chile, Colombia, Boliv

Some folk, some tango, some country and some pop and cumbia or salsa based. Also since Indians inhabit the region some artists sing in their language not spanish. Further a instrumental new age fusion version has emerged that is sometimes used for meditation.
I decided to put examples off YouTube of the music.

Argentina have the biggest rock culture and history among latín American countries. It started in the 60s and made a major impact in the 80s when it conquered latin american charts. Nowadays is not the most listened genre but it ranks 3rd behind Cumbia and Trap/Rap and even the new rap singers embrace rock because it’s part of our culture. In 2017, only one band made a concert for 300.000 people. Famous musicians have already said that the crowd is amazing and maybe that’s the reason why there were DVD of concerts in Argentina made by artists of different genres like ACDC, Megadeth, The Rollin

Besides Argentina’s poor economy, it’s most likely to succeed with a band in Argentina than other countries because Argentinians have a great attachment to Rock, there are big festivals, bars and stadiums that are packed with rock’n roll shows every year. Also, Argentinian bands have made a very good reputation in South America. Sadly being succesful with a rock band is hard in any part of the world, young people seem to prefer other genres but there’s still hope that good old rock days come to the surface.
Salsa was a name created in the USA it actually started in New York and Miami Florida and it is refer to Cuban and Purto Rican music but Cuban music is still to this date Cuban music like the Mambo, el Guaguanco, el Son Cubano has nothing to do with salsa and Purto Rico also have their music for example los Aguinaldos, la Plena and many more, but of course here in the USA everything that has to do with the Spanish in the new world (The Americas) is thrown into one big pot when we have are differences and I feel it should be recognized as that.
That depends are we talking about music from the European land called Valle Latina?
Latin music is over 2000 years old. They invented the concept of music as an art form.
You’d be hard-pressed to find any music in Western civilization that wasn’t influenced by the Latins in some way.
The concept of Latin America diminishes the cultural and heritage value of Western Civilization.
Please stop using this word.
Adonis Muerto is an excellent Experimental Sludge Doom Post Metal band from Guatemala with two albums: Apertura de la Boca y Rreposo. Ideal for Neurosis fans.
Check out this video:
Some genres do, like “Norteño” and if you let me include it, “Ska” (since Jamaica is not exactly a Latin country). But yes, some genres do.
For one reason i have more Brazilian metal then other countries. Not sure why.
I'm not sure if Sepultura can be called extreme metal, but until chaos ad they were awesome.
I like Krisiun (brazil) a lot
Pentagram (Chile) need to be mentioned of course
Brujeria from Mexico
Anal vomit from Peru
Sarcofago (Brazil)
Rebaelliun (Brazil)
Argentina without doubt.
We made the first international successful rock in another language. We inspired and pushed the spanish speaking countries to make rock. Before the Argentine Rock expansion record companies disregarded rock in spanish because it didn’t sell.
Argentina is a very rocker country. Look at all the great world bands get in love with Argentina, the AC-DC DVD was recorded in Argentina.
And this is our rock, just to show a few bands:

Cubans hit upon the “Jazz band” format in the 1940s, and it begat the Mambo. Machito and His Afro-Cubans in New York used the same format and actual Jazz musicians, and his drummer Chano Pozo was a driving force behind Dizzy Gillespie’s Latin influences. Flip Philips and Charlie Parker played with Machito.
Another genre of Latin Jazz was developed by Mongo Santamaria, originally with Perez Prado, then with George Shearing and Cal Tjader. He most typically had combos with one trumpet, one sax. There and in different West Coast ensembles (like the bands of Calros and Jorge Santana — Malo) the sax

There and in different West Coast ensembles (like the bands of Calros and Jorge Santana — Malo) the sax player was often Hadley Caliman.
The only “native” tradition that uses saxophones is the Dominican Merengue, where an alto sax doubles the guajeo of the accordion.
Sadly there’s no much support forthe real good Latin singers, the companies only want to support the Caribbeans and others that make Caribbean genres and urban muisc.
ORIGINAL QUESTION: What are some examples of lively Latin music?
Here’s a hot little number by one of my favorite performers, Thalia:

And here’s another one:
The classical guitar sometimes referred to as the “Spanish guitar” or the “nylon string guitar” has been embedded in the history of Latin America, or what may be known as “Iberian America,” and is still notorious today
I don’t know why. But, it gives me deja-vu vibe. They echoed the reasoning and excuses which BTS gave.
Like … see this break-up into positive way. (Sound like J-Hope though BTS didn’t break up, just keep distancing from each other for a while (which also is not entirely true.))
They want to grow and peruse individual interest.
They tune in the same sound.
Basically, most of the group cannot stick together for a long time. It’s natural that everyone or everything is keep changing even if you want to be the same. One member of CNCO already left last year.
I think K-Pop groups make more worldwide popu

I think K-Pop groups make more worldwide popularity than this Latin band created by Simone Cowell.
The group album sales and rankings are not that ideal. Still, they won’t break up immediately. They have concert schedule for another one and a half year. This break-up announcement or whatever will create a surge in concert ticket sales.
Latin ancestry produces Latin music.
In other words, the cultural heritage of Spanish, African, and indigenous peoples, including their rhythms and musical instruments, produces a mix that is called Latin music or Latin Jazz.
Obviously, in time, different genres emerged.
There are, although the ones I know of seem to be kind of ad hoc. In 2007, there was a CD called Est hora, which contains Finnish rock and tango music in Latin, but I think there was no established band behind it, but it was rather the project of some junior college (in Finnish lukio) where they study Latin.
