Biography
Argentinian folk band founded in Salta in 1948, active until 2003. Their name comes from a bird's name typical from North Argentina: zorzal chalchalero (Turdus rufiventris).
First line-up: Víctor José Zambrano (Cocho), Carlos Franco Sosa (Pelusa), Aldo Saravia (el Chivo) and his cousin, Juan Carlos Saravia (el Gordo). In 1949 Aldo Saravia was replaced by José Antonio Saravia Toledo, and in 1950 Ricardo Federico Dávalos (Dicky) replaced Carlos Sosa. In 1953 Ernesto Cabeza replaced Saravia Toledo, and they started their recordings.
After more changes and some recordings they won first award on Festival de Cosquín in 1968 with the classical line-up: Juan Carlos Saravia, Ernesto Cabeza, Polo Román and Pancho Figueroa.
