Salamandra Marks 26 Years with Special Concert and New Music

Paraguayan rock band Salamandra is set to mark its 26th anniversary with a significant concert this Saturday, August 22. The event, held at Vöudevil Venue, promises a comprehensive journey through the band's extensive career, featuring a repertoire of more than 30 songs.

Beyond revisiting their past hits, Salamandra will also offer a glimpse into their current musical direction. The band is actively promoting the initial segment of their new album, '#1,' which includes three recently released tracks: "La Mentira," "Cigarrillo," and "El Dedo Acusador." The latter song notably incorporates a distinct folk influence.

Originating from Ypacaraí, Salamandra has maintained a vibrant presence throughout 2026 with consistent releases and performances. Over their two decades, the group has released five studio albums and two live albums, undertaking tours across Paraguay, Argentina, Chile, and Mexico. Their enduring appeal lies in a musical identity that continues to evolve while retaining the core elements that established them as a prominent act in Paraguay's national rock scene.

The current lineup features Javier Zacher on vocals and second guitar, Celso “Cachito” Galeano on bass, Rodney Cords on lead guitar, and José “Batoloco” Gaona on drums. This anniversary concert offers fans a chance to reconnect with beloved songs from various stages of their career and to experience the fresh material that signals the band's new chapter.
