Nueva Trova

Nueva trova is a Latin American music genre that emerged in the late 1960s, known for its fusion of traditional folk with contemporary social and political themes. Characterized by lyrical depth and poetic expression, nueva trova blends acoustic guitar melodies with introspective and often revolutionary narratives, aiming to inspire awareness and change. Artists like El Hijo de Borikén and Atahualpa Yupanqui weave tales of cultural identity and social justice, while bands such as Sui Generis infuse elements of rock and pop, broadening its appeal. The genre's distinctiveness lies in its commitment to storytelling and advocacy through music, reflecting a tapestry of personal and collective struggles.
