Elure’s Journey: A Cartagena Post-Grunge Tale

Beyond the familiar names Deep Purple and Kiss, the Cartagena Rock Imperium lineup expands to embrace a thriving local scene. The big, bold banner represents bands eager to deliver their message through electric guitars, contagious riffs, and melodies that bite yet stay melodic. That exact energy is what will define the festival. Elure, a Cartagena-based band led by Carlota Ágatha, is set to light up the third day of the post-grunge festival. Adopting a hands-on, do-it-yourself approach, they handle everything with self-management, carving out a name in concert loops, venues, and festivals, both within the region and beyond. Their two EPs map a steady growth and a clear determination to push the project toward new horizons, exploring the loudest corners of alternative rock while voicing a generation’s disappointments, as Carlota Ágatha herself explained to La Opinión.
