Music
Chilean music, particularly folk music, has had international acclaim since the 1960s, when Violeta Parra and her children Angel and Isabel made their names as politically committed singers and songwriters. During the 1970's and later as exiles, folk groups like Quilapayśn and Inti Illimani regularly toured Europe and North America before returning to Chile in the early 1990's, when democracy was restored.
Today, Inti Illimani, Illapu and Congreso are three well-known groups that have successfully combined past folk traditions with their own contemporary sound. Jose Vasconcelos is another top artist whose music reflects links with Chile's past. As for the contemporary rock scene, the group Los Tres recently debuted in a live MTV concert, and other groups such as Lucybell, La Ley, and Los Tetas are gaining international recognition.
