Antonio Cavero Bellido, known as Zambo Cavero, and Óscar Avilés began performing together in 1952. They were a vocalist and guitarist duo who became popular in Peru, eventually touring nationally and internationally. Their 1967 song "Contigo Perú" became particularly well-known.
They released several albums in the late 1960s and early 1970s, including "Una noche en Lima" and "Canciones de mi tierra." Another of their songs, "Cariño Bonito," appears among their recorded work.
Cavero's personal life sometimes drew attention, and their music faced occasional criticism for being too popular. They performed together for years, with Avilés providing guitar and backing vocals to Cavero's lead singing.
