Entre Trópicos and SO36 present:
There are certain intangibles that go beyond headlining shows, album sales, or social media followings—objective data that, nonetheless, confirm Carolina Durante as the most important band of their generation.
But let's talk about those intangibles—the elements that, in an era of data tyranny, transform an artist or a band into a phenomenon whose significance transcends mere numbers. Let's talk about Carolina Durante.
From the very beginning, Carolina Durante has swum against the current. After a Los Punsetes concert, they decided to form a band. The very next day, they divided up the roles, bought instruments—guitar, bass, drums—and got to work. All of this happened at a time when urban and Latin music were dominating the charts, becoming an unavoidable global soundtrack.
Perhaps it was that decision to carve out their own destiny, combined with their ability to maintain the excitement of their first day, that set them apart—making them the most important band of their generation and a driving force behind the resurgence of rock and guitar-driven pop.
Carolina Durante is a supergroup—the only one in the world not formed by members of previously established bands. They simply wouldn't be the same without Diego's charismatic voice, his lyrics balancing existential unease and sharp humor. Nor without Mario's punk-pop energy on guitar, Martín's steady and sober presence on bass, or Juan's raw talent and eccentricity behind the drums. Each of the four members is essential in shaping both their sound and their unmistakable identity.
With these foundations—and occasional collaborations with artists like Amaia, Jota (Los Planetas), Santiago Motorizado, and even Rosalía—Carolina Durante has built a career that balances mass appeal with the cult devotion of their passionate fanbase.
These are the intangibles we mentioned at the beginning—the reason why their importance goes beyond numbers. And the best part?
The best is yet to come.
