The Argentinean contemporary folk musician was mostly influenced by his father who used to play in a group called Santiago Manta after his family moved to Buenos Aires, having his first hit, El Mimoso, in 1971. Peteco Carabajal started singing at the age of 17, forming a threesome named Santiago Trio with his cousin Roberto and Shalo Leguizamon. Local artist Hugo Diaz got them a deal, recording for the first time along with Agustin Gomez and percussionist Domingo Cura. In the mid-'70s, Shalo Leguizamon joined Los Huanca Hua, on the other side, cousins Roberto and Peteco decided to be part of Los Carabajal. In 1985, Peteco Carabajal created a new project called M.P.A., recording Nadie Mas Que Nadie that same year. After playing with Los Santiaguenos, the artist released Encuentro in 1991, followed by 1994's Memorias de Amor. El Baile is his 2003 release.
