This album features lively and soulful songs from Costa Rica, presented by Grupo Quelite. Founded in 2008, Grupo Quelite is a traditional Costa Rican music group from San Carlos, in the northern part of Costa Rica. They have performed countless concerts in many communities in Costa Rica and abroad. Their repertoire consists of songs in various traditional musical genres of Costa Rica, such as the tambito, considered a national rhythm, the calypso of the Caribbean area of the country, as well as boleros, corridos and others. Quelite's songs tell stories, and express thoughts and feelings of the peasant and rural life of the Costa Rican people. They play instruments common to traditional Costa Rican music, such as guitar, accordion, flute and clarinet, as well as more contemporary instruments such as electric bass, keyboards and drums.
