Biography
Charly García is one of the most talented and influential figures of Argentine and Latin rock. He composed many generational hymns and was always obsessed with expanding the boundaries of pop music and the musician's role itself. At the age of four he started attending piano lessons. He was deeply into classical music. All that changed when discovered the Beatles and the Byrds. While he attended secondary school he met Nito Mestre, with whom he formed Sui Generis in the early '70s. They only released three studio albums but it was enough to settle García as a key figure of the just-born rock scene. They disbanded in 1975 and a year later he took part in PorSuiGieco with other folk-rock figures.
