GIO Chamba

Gio Chamba is an Electropical-Cumbia duo from Houston, Texas, formed by Gio Alejandro and Coffee Guzman. Blending electronic production, hip-hop, and traditional cumbia, their sound feels both modern and familiar, driven by bass-heavy grooves, psychedelic guitar lines, and high-energy live.

Their music is shaped in collaboration with producer Svani Quintanilla (Principe Q)—son of A.B. Quintanilla of Los Kumbia Kings—bringing a distinct cumbia lineage to their evolving sound. On stage, Gio’s vocals and guitar interplay with Coffee’s explosive, punk-influenced conga
playing, creating a dance-forward live experience that connects immediately with audiences.

Over the past decade, Gio Chamba has shared stages with artists such as Ozomatli, Natalia Lafourcade, Chicano Batman, Caravan Palace, L’Impératrice, Dengue Dengue Dengue, Los Lonely Boys, and A.B. Quintanilla & Los Kumbia Allstarz, and has performed at festivals and venues including Free Press Summer Fest, Super Bowl Live (Houston), CMJ Showcase (NYC), and The Aztec Theatre (San Antonio). Their latest full-length album, Tropidélicos (Mixto Records), draws inspiration from Peruvian Chicha while pushing psychedelic-electronic cumbia forward. With a rapidly growing online following—over 59K on TikTok and 48K on Instagram. Gio Chamba continues to build momentum across the Americas and beyond.
