Onda Sur is a vibrant music ensemble dedicated to celebrating the rich and diverse folkloric traditions of South America. Formed by a group of passionate musicians from different corners of Venezuela, Onda Sur brings to life the rhythms, melodies, and stories that define the soul of Latin American culture.

Their sound blends the traditional instruments of the Andes and Afro-Caribe a - such as the cuatro, flute, tambora, charrasca and congas - with modern arrangements adding piano and bass that create a bridge between past and present. Through their performances, Onda Sur takes audiences on a journey across the landscapes of the Andes and the coasts, evoking the spirit of ancestral communities and the warmth of contemporary Latin identity.

With heartfelt vocals, intricate harmonies, and an authentic connection to cultural roots, Onda Sur has grown into a symbol of unity through music. Whether performing at intimate cultural gatherings or international festivals, the group invites listeners to feel the heartbeat of South America - one note, one rhythm, and one story at a time.
