From last.fm:

Chicha Libre plays a mixture of latin rhythms, surf and psychedelic pop inspired by peruvian music from Lima and the Amazon. The Brooklyn collective is made up of French, American, Venezuelan and Mexican musicians who mix up covers of Peruvian chicha with original compositions in French, Spanish and English, re-interpretation of 1970s pop classics as well as cumbia versions of pieces by the likes of Erik Satie, Love and Richard Wagner. The group draws its personnel from Barbes regulars Bebe Eiffel, One Ring Zero and Las Rubias Del Norte. Read more about Chicha Libre on Last.fm.

The Poor Nobodys are a 7-piece outfit from Minneapolis with the instrumentation of piano, violin, banjo, acoustic/electric guitar, operatic vocals, upright bass, mandolin, and accordion. Their sound fuses the familiar with the peculiar, where unconventional melodies weave their way through rustic roots. The Poor Nobodys on Last.fm.
