Biography
Formed in 1999 in Villa Alemana, Chile, Chico Trujillo are the leaders of the Nueva Cumbia Chilena movement which combines cumbia with hints of ska, reggae, and rock music. The group was founded by lead singer Aldo Enrique Asenjo Cubillos (aka Macha), who was originally a member of La Floripondio. After touring in Europe, Aldo Enrique Asenjo Cubillos was inspired to create a new form of cumbia and began jamming with his friend and fellow musician Antonio Orellana. Over time, the duo grew into an ensemble â consisting of up to 11 members - and they released their debut album, Chico Trujillo y la Señora Imaginación, in 2001. Touring in Chile, the US, and elsewhere, Chico Trujillo performed to audiences big and small at festivals, clubs, and universities. The groupâs subsequent albums included Cumbia Chilombiana (2003), Plato Ãnico Bailable (2008), Chico de Oro (2009), El Gran Pecador (2012), and Mambo Mundial (2019). The groupâs most well-known tracks include âEl Conductorâ (2006), âRegresaâ (2006), âLocaâ (2008), and âGran Pecadorâ (2009).
