Yeison Landero is the grandson of the legendary
Colombian accordionist and singer Andres Landero,
known as the king of cumbia. In addition to inheriting
his grandfather’s instrument, Yeison inherited his
artistic soul, melodic sensibility, and gift for getting a
crowd on their feet and keeping them dancing. The
junior musician also absorbed the influence of Alfredo
Gutierrez, Lizandro Meza, Calixto Ochoa, Enriquez
Diaz, and other prominent cumbia figures, and his own
music combines traditional styles and instrumentation
with laptop beats.
