About Maracaibo 15

Maracaibo 15 is one of the most popular gaita groups of the modern era, formed in Zulia in the early 1970s. They brought a polished, romantic sensibility to gaita zuliana, widening its appeal with smooth vocal harmonies and radio-ready arrangements. For decades they have been a staple of the Venezuelan December, their songs inseparable from the country's Christmas celebrations.
