STG Presents Mexican Institute of Sound x Meridian Brothers present Ruido Tovar Monday, July 27, 2026The Neptune TheatreDoors at 7pmShow at 8pmGeneral Admission Standing Floor Get Tickets Mexican Institute of Sound (MIS) and Meridian Brothers join forces on Ruido Tovar, a cross-border collaboration that reimagines the tropical traditions linking Mexico and Colombia. Drawing inspiration from icons like Rigo Tovar and the psychedelic Mexican cumbia era, the project blends danzón, son, cha-cha-cha, and experimental electronics into a vibrant new language. MIS’s genre-bending electronic tropicalism meets Meridian Brothers’ avant-garde eccentricity, resulting in a sound that is both reverent and playfully distorted. Together, Camilo Lara and Eblis Álvarez pay tribute to decades of musical exchange while pushing tropical music into unexpected territory.
