Fragil, the Peruvian rock band
While searching for famous persons from Peru, I found out that Peru has a rock band! Yes sir. And they are called Fragil. Check out what it says about them in Wiki:
Frágil is a peruvian progressive/symphonic hard rock band. Named after an eponymous Yes album (“Fragile”), Frágil is one of the most respected rock bands in Perú. Fragil started as a symphonic progressive/hard rock band influenced by the likes of Yes, Genesis, ELP, Jethro Tull, Black Sabbath, Rainbow . They earned local fame through their hit single “Av. Larco”(Ave. Larco) in the early 80’s. (Despite the band’s interest in progressive rock, “Av. Larco” sounded like the pop group Toto.) Frágil has a cult status in Peru usually selling out all of their concerts.
I have check out their MySpace profile and I kind of dig their music. Only thing is I don’t understand the language so it’s a shame. Start packing for a Machu Picchu travel because if you really want to check them out, might as well check them out live in Peru, yes?
