Swinging release party from Brussels-based Latin alternative band
Chicos y Mendez, the Belgian-Peruvian music project led by singer-songwriter David Méndez Yépez, is finally back in Brussels to celebrate the release of their new album.
For the past ten years, Chicos y Mendez has been forging a path between Europe and Latin America — from Belgium to Mexico, through France, the Netherlands, Peru, and Ecuador — with a vibrant Latin Alternative sound. A bold fusion of Afro-Latin rhythms, pop, rock, and reggae, carried by lyrics in Spanish and French, blending stage energy with poetic commitment.
After a detour into theatre with the acclaimed "Recordar, c'est vivre à nouveau" — a play co-created with his sister and hailed by RTBF as “the most beautiful show of the season” — David returns to his first love: music.
On September 19 2026, Chicos y Mendez comes back to Brussels, the city he now calls home. After igniting the AB in 2021 with a post-Covid reopening show, a double bill with Flavia Coelho that left a mark, the band is ready to write the nextn musicalchapter. ¡Vamos!

“Acento is now available on all platforms
"Acento," the new song by Chicos y Mendez. It is a collaboration with Boogát, a great singer from Quebec with roots in Mexico and Paraguay. It is a song made for dancing, for celebrating our accents— our different ways of speaking, which tell us so much about our life stories, migration, and resistance. Listen to "Acento" on all platforms.
