Tango Il Faut

We met in 2007 studying Tango, with some of the greatest ‘Maestros’. In mid 2010, we decided to start this project, as a fusion of tradition and new sounds. This is how Il Faut was born, first as a duo, later as a trio. With some compositions of our own and some well-cared arrangements, we were covering Tangos from all periods, always printing a personal sonority.

Years passed by and we recorded 2 albums: “Tarde de domingo” in 2014 (sponsored by the National Academy of Tango) and “Avanti” in 2017. We toured 5 times along Europe and the United States (more than 20 cities in total) and the Ministry of Culture of Argentina declared us “Artists of Cultural Interest” in two ocassions. And of course, there were hundreds of shows in milongas, participation in festivals, TV shows, Radio and more. In 2018, Nicolás Fernández joined us in double bass, consolidating the trio sound. We also become hosts of our own independent festival named “Tango Vivo!” that promotes and disseminates the current Tango of Buenos Aires scene.

And as if this were not enough, we also like to give musicality workshops, lectures about the evolution of Tango, DJ for milongas and more. In other words…
Chan Chan!
