Los Chunguitos

Los Chunguitos are a prominent Spanish flamenco pop and rumba band known for their street-wise style and emotive lyrics, deeply rooted in the experiences of the working-class urban life. Originated from the Madrid suburb of Vallecas, the band was formed in the early 1970s by brothers Juan, Manuel, and José Salazar. Their music often tackles themes of love, poverty, and social injustice, resonating strongly with both the Romani community, to which they belong, and a wider Spanish audience.

Over the years, Los Chunguitos' raw and passionate sound has won them a dedicated fanbase across Spain and in Latin communities abroad. They've contributed to the soundtracks of multiple films by the iconic Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar and their music has been synonymous with the transition of Spanish society following the end of Franco's dictatorship. The band's enduring popularity is reflected in their consistent release of new material, with recent albums like "Eran Perros Callejeros" showcasing their ability to remain relevant while still offering that characteristic sound that first propelled them into the spotlight. Their contribution to Spanish music has solidified their status as cultural icons within the rumba genre.
