Background notes
Archive material and source history
Camacaro formed in Bogotá in the late 1990s, started by Camilo Mejia and Carlos Vargas. They took their name from a mythical creature in Andean folklore, which gave a hint about where they were coming from musically. Their sound pulled from Colombian folk and rock, but they weren't interested in sticking to any one genre.
A song like "Composición" from 2005 shows what they were doing. It's on the album Mi Lado Oscuro, and it has that kind of haunting, introspective feel they became known for. They also put out tracks like "Recuerdame" and "Vida," which carried similar weight.
Early on, some people in the industry didn't know what to make of them, and their lyrics sometimes touched on social or political topics that drew criticism. They kept at it, though, working through those challenges without letting it define everything they did.
