Pedro y Pablo is an iconic music duo formed by Argentine musicians Miguel Cantilo and Jorge Durietz during the tumultuous political climate of late 1960s Argentina. Their music resonated deeply with the youth of the time as they composed and performed songs with strong social and political overtones, earning them a proud position among the pioneers of rock nacional, the Argentine rock movement that mirrored the American and British rock revolution but with a distinctive Latin American twist.

After initially coming together in 1969 and releasing a string of influential albums, they faced censorship and political pressure, leading to a period of inactivity. However, their legacy carried on through the years, and they later reunited several times. Their more recent releases such as "Unidos por el Cantar" and "Corazón Sudamericano" reflect their enduring commitment to social themes and their ability to adapt to changing musical landscapes without losing the essence of their roots. "Pedro y Pablo: En Concierto" captures the energy and spirit of their live performances, further cementing their status as stalwarts of Argentine music. Even in their current music, such as in "Conesa" and autobiographical songs like "Yo Vivo en Esta Ciudad," Pedro y Pablo continue to weave stories that resonate with the urban experience and broader human condition, holding up a mirror to society through their poignant lyrics and compelling melodies.
