Background
Che Apalache was formed in Buenos Aires in 2013.[2] After living abroad in a number of countries including Spain and Japan, Joe Troop moved to Argentina in 2010 to teach bluegrass music, eventually forming a band with some of his best students.[3] Troop notes that for their first five years they played only Appalachian music, and "that seemed amazing avant-garde to have a bluegrass band in the city of Buenos Aires."[4] However, they later began to incorporate some of the Latin styles they had grown up with in Argentina and Mexico. Che Apalache initially played with an upright bass but eventually settled on the lineup of Martin Bobrik and Franco Martino, from Buenos Aires, and Pau Barjau, from Mexico. Their uncommon style caught the attention of Béla Fleck who decided to produce Rearrange My Heart in his home studio after Fleck saw them perform at his banjo camp.[5] "These guys are just so unique and fascinating that it was impossible for me to say no," Fleck said. "Music should be about human expression and these guys are expressing it in spades."[6]
