"Cumbia de Corazon is a heartfelt tribute to Colombia and a dedication to Australia, crafted in the infectious rhythm of Cumbia. It's all about our journey, our emotions, and just celebrating where we come from while enjoying where we are now”

We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the lands on which this song was recorded, the Wurundjeri and Bunurong Peoples of the Kulin nation and pay our respects to the elders past, present and emerging.
