Lucho Castillo and Nico Poblete

The duo of musicians will perform for the first time at GAM, after their time in different Chilean folklore groups. Lucho Castillo, a self-taught musician with a long career, is recognized for his particular style of dancing and singing the cueca, where he combines folklore with rock and other musical styles. He has been a founder and member of groups such as Los Tricolores -with which he won the Festival del Huaso de Olmué in 2015-, and Los Piolas del Lote, with whom he released the album, Tiempos de oro dedicated to the glory years of the cueca brava.

Nicolás Poblete, a renowned actor and musician trained at the Theater School of the University of Chile, has researched the oral traditions of Chilean music for years. He has forged his career as a musician, highlighting his participation in Los Piolas del Lote, where great composers and performers such as Lucho Castillo, Pablo Guzmán and Dángelo Guerra are his mentors.
