“Los Comprovincianos” is a trio formed by two button accordions and a Spanish guitar. They come from Rosario, and they perform music from the eastern part of Argentina, like Chamame and Chamarrita. This music is very rhythmic, and it’s played for dancing. These styles find their roots in the southern parts of Brazil. Traditionally this style is not played by percussion instruments, so the accordion parts become like drums and generate the forward motion to invite the dancers. Their lineup is Walter Martinez, Jorge Ramirez, and Marito Pagura.

Song name: El Rey, composed by Roque L.Gonzalez.

Mariana Carrizo is a “coplera singer” from the Calchaqui Valleys in Salta, the Northwest part of Argentina. She was born and raised in the altitudes of the Andes and grew up as a Shepherd. Where by oral tradition, she learned the music of her grandmother.

Song name: Zamba de la Candelaria, composed by J. Davalos - E. Falú

Horacio Banegas is a legend from Santiago del Estero. He and his group bring on the powerful sound of their land. Santiago del Estero was the southern part of the Inca Empire, so you can hear them singing in quichua (the Inca’s language) as well as Spanish. They also showcase the Sacha-guitarra, an instrument invented by Elpidio Herrera, a small guitar played with a little bow that can sound like a mandolin or a violin from “el monte”. The groove is so sick you can’t sit down. Their lineup is Horacio Banegas, Mono Banegas, Jana Banegas, and Franco Giovos.

Song name: Para cantar he nacido, composed by Bebe Ponti / Horacio Banegas
