Los Pibes Chorros is an Argentine cumbia villera group founded in 2001 in the city of Berazategui by keyboardist and singer Ariel "el traidor" Salinas. The themes of their lyrics quickly captured the public's attention during the group's early days.
Their lyrics address aspects of the marginalization of Argentina in the late 1990s. The cultural habits of these sectors found expression in the music market and its corresponding aesthetic movement.
Along with Yerba Brava, Mala Fama, Pala Ancha, and Damas Gratis, they are considered the greatest exponents of the genre and, along with the latter, the leaders in popularity nationwide between 2001 and 2005, a period in which a rivalry also existed due to the bad relationship between Ariel "el traidor" and Pablo Lescano.
This is their first show in the UK and one of the greatest moments in Cumbia Villera. Don't miss it!
