## Summary

Los Pibes Chorros will bring Argentine cumbia villera to Coachella for the first time in 2027, marking a new milestone for a genre rooted in working-class communities around Buenos Aires. The group helped popularise the style, whose lyrics often address poverty, crime, drugs and everyday life in informal settlements.

Formed around 2000 in Berazategui, the band broke through with its 2001 debut, *Arriba las Manos*, and has continued performing since original frontman Ariel “El Traidor” Salinas left in 2005. They are scheduled to play on 10 and 17 April alongside Tame Impala, Phoebe Bridgers, Weezer and Robyn. Tier 2 general admission passes for both weekends cost $779, including a three-day shuttle pass.
