Charly García

Born 1951-10-23 · Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Charly García is an Argentine singer-songwriter, musician and record producer. With a vast and renowned career, he formed and headlined two of the most popular bands in Argentina's rock history: Sui Generis in the 1970s and Serú Girán in the 1980s, plus cult status groups like progressive-rock act La Máquina de Hacer Pájaros and folk rock supergroup PorSuiGieco, both also in the 1970s. Since the 1980s García has worked mostly as a solo musician. García is widely considered by critics as one of the most influential rock artists in South America, and (together with Luis Alberto Spinetta) as "The Father of Argentine Rock".

The Underwater Concert poster
10.0

"El Concierto Subacuático" is the sixth music DVD released by Argentine rock musician Charly García. The DVD contains footage from the artist's concert at the José Amalfitani Stadium on Friday, October 23, 2009 (a concert that was considered by many to be García's "return" to the Argentine stage after a long rehabilitation from drug addiction). The title refers to a phrase that the musician himself said during the concert "This is the first underwater concert in the world" because the show took place during torrential rain.
