Meet CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, aka Catriel Guerreiro and Ulises Guerriero, an Argentinian duo who have been buds since finding themselves in the same music school as kids with the same last name.
Although the pair first emerged in this iteration back in 2018, it wasn’t until Autumn 2024 when they headed into the NPR offices to reimagine their music for the Tiny Desk Concert format that C&P became a global concern. It’s a performance that forms the basis of their latest EP, PAPOTA, a performance that distills both their cheeky attitude and wry sense of humor with their eclectic musicianship and eye-catching sense of style. To date the video has 39 million views and counting.
We caught up with the twosome to talk about their beginnings in Buenos Aires, how Tiny Desk changed their life, their first ever US live performances being at Coachella 2025 (casual), and how K-pop and Queen alike have influenced their music.
If you haven’t listened to their latest EP PAPOTA, you must, and better yet, watch the short film that accompanies the EP. It’s a piece that really captures the essence of CA7RIEL & Paco — their absurd, surrealist, smutty humor, depicting a world populated by Chads (watch the interview to get the rundown on Chads), who are obsessed with chicken and steroids. We talk about all this plus imposter syndrome, Zoolander and Elvis, Barbra Streisand and Sharon Stone, obsessive fans, the thrill of inspiring negative reactions, plus so much more.
