Cachada is the sound of modern cumbia. The band performs under the musical direction of Salvadoran songwriter, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist, "Jazzy" Jorge Gavidia Morales; and features a handpicked selection of top musicians from Toronto's Latin, jazz, and reggae music scenes. Jazzy Jorge is Cachada's composer, arranger, and primary lyricist, but the band also features lyrical contributions from "Pato Irie" (cajon) and other members. Cachada always performs a repertoire of strictly original music that fuses hip hop, reggae, and a touch of jazz into their original cumbia sound, creating one of the most explosive new Latin bands to hit the streets.
Cachada's songs are a reflection of the Latin American diaspora in Canada and the United States. This can be heard clearly through the musical arrangements with the fusion of cumbia (El Salvador and Colombia's national music) with hip hop, reggae, and jazz harmony. Two of the band's members Jazzy Jorge and Dilly Nolasco grew up and came of age in Toronto's notorious Jane and Finch Corridor. The neighborhood and the influence from its large Caribbean population can be heard in songs like Hermano Jamaiquino (Jamican Brother), and Mi Barrio (My Neighborhood). They offer a glimpse into positive experiences from the neighborhood with lyrics like "...madres que dia a dia cuidan sus semillas."
Talking about neighborhood mothers who take care of their children, but also a reference to the "Semillas Latinas" fine arts summer camp for children at the Casa Maiz community centre in North York where Jazzy Jorge has worked as a music educator. There is an emphasis on community and equality as the music guides the listener through what are often a statement of real stories and experiences coming of age in the community. The image of a child on his way to practice at a soccer field, neighbors helping neighbors, and so on.
