Callejeros, an Argentine rock band, originated in the late 1990s, swiftly becoming a central figure in the local music scene with their gritty, authentic rock sounds. Gaining widespread recognition in the early 2000s, their music narrative is deeply interwoven with socio-political themes, blue-collar woes, and the raw, unpolished energy of urban life, resonating deeply with a broad audience across Argentina and beyond. The band's discography is a robust mix of studio albums and powerful live performances, capturing the electrifying essence of their music when played in front of an audience.

The trajectory of Callejeros took a tragic and contentious turn with the 2004 nightclub fire at República Cromañón during one of their concerts, resulting in significant casualties and putting the band at the center of a national controversy regarding safety regulations at live music venues. This incident profoundly impacted the band's career and the Argentine music scene. Despite these adversities, Callejeros continued to create and perform, their releases like "Disco Escultura" and numerous live albums such as "Concierto Obras 30 y 31 Julio, Parte Uno" and "Parte Dos" standing as testaments to their resilience and enduring appeal to fans. Their music, marked by a distinct blend of rock with elements of blues and Argentine rock, continues to captivate audiences, making Callejeros a significant and influential act in Latin American rock history.
