La Derecha is a Colombian rock band that emerged in the early 1990s, gaining recognition for their distinctive blend of rock music with regional and folkloric elements, contributing to the diverse tapestry of Latin rock. Formed in Bogotá, the band was founded by the guitarist Ricardo "Richard" Bravo, who sought to create music that resonates with the cultural heartbeat of Colombia while also appealing to universal rock sensibilities. Their sound is characterized by a fusion of gritty electric guitars, traditional Latin rhythms, and reflective, often socially conscious lyrics.

The band achieved widespread popularity with hits such as "La Derecha" and "Si te busco" in the 90s and continued to release influential music over the years, adapting to changing times while maintaining their unique sound. Among their recent work, "Últimas Funciones" and "Dylan por Nosotros (Últimas Funciones)" showcase their ongoing evolution and commitment to crafting thought-provoking music. Tracks like "Malayaa," "Arbol Torcido," and "El Puente de los Aburridos" exhibit a mature artistry that remains true to the band's roots, while "Polvo Eres" and "Alice" affirm their ability to create powerful narratives through song, securing their legacy in the Latin American rock scene.
