Los Manseros Santiagueños are an emblematic Argentine folk music ensemble hailing from Santiago del Estero, a province renowned for its rich cultural heritage and as a cradle for traditional folklore music. The group, whose origins trace back to 1959, has had a profound influence on the Argentine folk scene, becoming a true institution and one of the most enduring and respected bands in the genre. Their name, “mansero,” evokes the essence of the calm and domesticated working horse, reflecting the group's rootedness in the rural traditions of their native land.

Through the decades, Los Manseros Santiagueños have been celebrated for their harmonious vocal arrangements and skilled string instrumentation, staying true to the folkloric rhythms such as chacarera, zamba, and vidala. Driven by their love for folk music and dedication to cultural expression, members Onofre Paz, Leocadio Torres, Alito Toledo, and several others throughout the band's history, have had a remarkable journey, showcasing their talent both nationally and internationally. Albums such as "Entre a Mi Pago Sin Golpear" and "En el Luna Park" showcase their unmistakable style, characterized by the intertwining of passionate vocals with the vibrant strings of the guitar, violin, and bombo legüero. Even with the passing of time and changes in their lineup, Los Manseros Santiagueños have remained an indelible icon of Argentine folk music, enchanting new generations with their heartfelt portrayal of the Santiago del Estero spirit.
