Cuarteto Cedrón

**Cuarteto Cedrón** is an iconic Argentine musical group rooted in tango’s raw emotion and rebellious spirit, blending it with jazz, folk, and sharp social commentary. Founded in the 1960s by Juan "Tata" Cedrón, the band became a voice of resistance during Argentina’s turbulent political eras, mixing traditional rhythms with poetry and activism. Forced into exile during the 1976 military dictatorship, they settled in Paris, where their sound evolved into a global fusion—think smoky milongas meeting Parisian cabaret vibes. Their collaborations with poets like Juan Gelman and reinterpretations of classics kept them relevant, while albums like *En Vivo (En el Olympia de París)* captured their gritty, heartfelt live energy.

Today, the Cedrón family legacy continues with Juan’s son, Juanjo Cedrón, steering the group into new territories while honoring their roots. Recent releases like *Para Nuestros Hijos* and *Aparición Urbana* showcase their knack for weaving storytelling with tango’s melancholy swagger, proving they’re still masters of turning struggle and love into music that sticks to your bones. Whether reviving forgotten verses or crafting fresh narratives, Cuarteto Cedrón remains a bridge between Buenos Aires’ past and the restless creativity of now.
