Héctor Buitrago

Colombian musician Héctor Buitrago started getting involved in the local rock scene while playing bass in a heavy metal band formed in 1986, called La Pestilencia. In 1990, he met singer/guitarist Andrea Echeverri forming Delia y Los Aminoácidos and touring Bogota's club circuit. In 1992, the band's name was changed to Aterciopelados and they made their debut with the release of Con El Corazón En La Mano in 1993, becoming a major Latin rock number during the following years. ~ Drago Bonacich
