Anakena is a Venezuelan Caribbean pop band founded in late 2016 and formed by Santiago de la Fuente, Carlos âMaraâ GonzĂĄlez, Mikel Maury and Antonio Romero.
So far they have two record productions: El Mar (EP, 2016) and Anakena (Album, 2019) both self-produced and whose songs explore the different sounds of Caribbean music. In their 4-year career, theyâve managed to accumulate more than 6 million streams on digital platforms and perform over 200 times in 14 cities and 5 countries. In addition to the original version of their debut album, the group presented the deluxe edition of it in May 2020 and the acoustic edition in August. The song âMontaña Rusaâ won the award for âBest Reggae Songâ at the 8th edition of the Pepsi Music Awards and âSanguchitoâ reached 1st place on the Venezuelan radio billboard in 2020.
âBaby Beachâ is the title of the 6th advance of the new album, a song in which the band flirts with reggae and that promises to be one of the anthems of the 2021 Anakena Tour, Anakena's 1st Latin American tour to be held in April of this year.
