Chimó Psicodélico is a band from Arauca –Arauca (Colombia) who intended to recover and experiment with the traditional music. They are comprised seven musicians; four traditional musicians and three who play jazz and rock. Daniel Melifero is the singer and the main songwriter. Amín Castellanos Herrera plays the electric guitar; Yensi Ferney Trujillo is the bass player, Carlos Gutierrez plays the bandola. The bandola is a Catalan string instrument with four orders and one string on each order. It is tuned as a mandolin on thirds, fourths and fifths, which in the Llano region is called “transports”. It is played “pajueliao”, making it easier for the performers of the string, so they can play them strongly with the plectrum with harmony to make the melody;and llanero cuatro, as the tiple.
