Perotá Chingó

live tonite proudly presents the Argentinian duo Perotá Chingó debut Irish show on 20 September 2026 at Opium Live from 07 PM.

The Argentine female duo whose music lives at the intersection of ancestral roots and contemporary expression. Formed by childhood friends Julia Ortiz and Dolores Aguirre, the project emerged in the summer of 2011 when a song, a sunset, and a shared desire to sing together unexpectedly set them on a path that would resonate with audiences around the world.

Their story became a global phenomenon with the release of “Ríe Chinito,” a video that has surpassed 34 million views and sparked a devoted international community built organically through word of mouth, social networks, and the transformative power of their live performances.

Since then, Perotá Chingó has performed more than 500 concerts across 20 countries, touring extensively throughout Latin America and Europe while remaining proudly independent. Their growth has been driven not by traditional industry structures, but by a direct and authentic connection with audiences, making them pioneers in self-managed music production and community-building through digital platforms.

At the heart of Perotá Chingó lies a unique artistic language where intertwined voices, folk influences, acoustic instrumentation, contemporary rhythms, and subtle electronic textures coexist. Their music moves effortlessly between intimacy and expansiveness, creating experiences that can feel deeply personal while simultaneously becoming collective celebrations.

Over four acclaimed albums Perotá Chingó (2013), Aguas (2017), Muta (2019), and TÁ (2024) the duo has continued to evolve, exploring the boundaries between traditional songcraft, ancestral musical memory, and modern sonic landscapes. Along the way, they have shared musical experiences with renowned artists including Lenine, Djavan, Chico César, Fernando Cabrera, Joss Stone, Anita Tijoux, and Chambao.

Perotá Chingó’s artistic vision is rooted in something timeless: the idea of gathering around the fire. Since the beginning of humanity, women have transformed the everyday into ritual, oral tradition into poetry, and community into celebration. Through their music, Julia and Dolores continue to explore these mysteries of creation, channeling connection, transformation, and collective energy through song.

Today, after more than fourteen years of artistic growth, the duo enters a new creative chapter. Their current live experience returns to an intimate essence while embracing the expansive power of communal celebration, offering audiences a space where music reconnects us with what is genuine, ancestral, and deeply human.
