Pastor López y Su Combo, led by the inimitable José Pastor López Pineda, have been a cornerstone in the cumbia and vallenato music scenes of Latin America for decades. Born on June 15, 1944, in Barquisimeto, Venezuela, Pastor López, affectionately known as "El Indio," began his music career at a young age and established himself as a legend with his distinctive blend of Colombian rhythms and tropical sounds. His prolific career saw the release of numerous albums, filled with hits that became anthems in festive environments across various nations, including his homeland of Venezuela and neighboring Colombia.

Throughout their extensive career, Pastor López y Su Combo enjoyed immense popularity, particularly for their energetic live performances and Lopez's engaging stage presence. Their music captures the essence of a cultural crossroads, where the traditions of Venezuelan and Colombian music meet. With a repertoire that spans over 40 years, Pastor López and his group have circulated their festive tunes in the form of numerous albums, including the series "Discos de Oro," which showcases their golden hits. Sadly, the music world bid farewell to Pastor López on April 5, 2019, but his legacy lives on through the timeless music he left behind and the "Tributo al Indio Pastor López" volumes that honor his enduring impact on the landscape of Latin American music.
