A Venezuelan group that mixed merengue and vallenato with pop in the 1990s.
For their signature sound, start with "No Te Preocupes Más." If you want something later in their run, try "De Reversa Mami."
El Símbolo's 1995 single "No Te Preocupes Más" became a hit by blending merengue and vallenato with pop elements. That track, along with songs like "La Isla Del Sol" and "Levantando Las Manos," gave them a recognizable sound during their active years. Their music still surfaces in Latin dance playlists and old-school radio mixes.
Oscar Emilio León and Nelson Arrieta formed the group in Caracas in the early 1990s. Arrieta left in 1996, leaving León as the main vocalist through albums like "Por Amarte Así" and "Sin Rivales." Their activity slowed after León's 2005 arrest on drug charges, though he was later acquitted.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
