'GOLDEN ROOTS’ ALBUM LAUNCH

Amaru Tribe celebrates the release of their third album and second vinyl, Golden Roots, with a special takeover of The Night Cat on Saturday 29 August. ◊ Launch Event tickets - via Moshtix

Marking the project’s 10-year anniversary, Golden Roots opens a new chapter after years of touring festivals across Australia and around the world. The album blends electronica, cumbia, global bass and ancestral rhythms, featuring collaborations with Chancha Via Circuito (Argentina), Afrosideral (Cuba), Adam Alydrus (Bali), Gaita Loop (Colombia) and QVLN (USA).

In this offering, Amaru Tribe captures the collective energy of their live shows while exploring more intimate, downtempo soundscapes. The result is a vibrant journey through movement, memory and connection; music that celebrates cultural exchange and reminds us that connection is gold. Golden Roots invites listeners to dance, reflect, remember and be free.

Created between tours, travels and studio sessions across Bogotá, Bali, Abu Dhabi and Australia, Golden Roots reflects the band’s global influences while staying rooted in Latin American rhythm, culture and storytelling. The album also features recordings made in Colombia with local artists Leang AKA Gaita Loop and Abelardo Lesmora.

For this milestone launch, Amaru Tribe will transform The Night Cat into a celebration of music and culture. Featuring Ausecuma Beats, Paul George (Tijuana Cartel), and DJs Future Roots and Gabriela Isabel, it will be the band's final Melbourne show of the year before Oscar Jimenez and Katherine Gailer relocate to Colombia for several months to focus on new creative opportunities.
