[edit] History

Novalima was created in 2001 as a musical collective by four Peruvian musicians based in several cities around the World: Ramón Perez Prieto (Lima), Grimaldo Del Solar (Barcelona), Rafael Morales (London) and Carlos Li Carrillo (Hong Kong).

This creative core was enriched by Afro-Peruvian scene musicians, such as Milagros Guerrero, Juan Medrano (Cotito), Mangue Vásquez, Pier Padilla Vásquez and Constantino Álvarez.

In 2006, Novalima was awarded with the IMA (Independent Music Awards) for Best Album in World Fusion category.
