Billo's is a legendary name in the landscape of Latin music, particularly rooted in the sounds and rhythms that form the festive soundtrack of the Caribbean. Founded in the 1930s by Luis María Frómeta Pereira, Billo's Caracas Boys is a Venezuelan orchestra that became synonymous with the spread of tropical music styles such as cumbia, porros, and merengue across Latin America. Throughout their storied history, Billo's Caracas Boys have gone through several reinventions and have preserved their legacy through constant adaptation within the tropical genre.

Their recent releases like "Dinastia Tropibailable 2020" and "Our Pachanga" are a testament to their enduring appeal and the timeless quality of their music. Still captivating audiences with their mix of vintage and contemporary sounds, Billo's demonstrates an unswerving commitment to the promotion and evolution of Latin music. Albums like "Oyendo a Billo" and "Tres Viejos Amigos" continue to exude the orchestra's trademark energy, incorporating the classic rhythms that have become integral to their identity, while projects like "Tambores de Carnaval" showcase their ability to bring the spirit of Venezuelan and Caribbean carnivals to life through their vibrant musical compositions.
