Asunción, Paraguay · 2004 — present

La secreta

La Secreta started playing in 2004, in Asunción, with Sergio "Banana" Pereira and Mike Cardozo, and later Ariel Burgos joined. Together they made three albums, and in each one, Cardozo wrote most of the songs. Although others also contributed, not as much. It was a group that moved between folk and rock, and did it with their own touch.

Their first album, "Gratis es más rico", came out in 2004, produced by themselves. Already in that time, the mix of sounds that characterized them was noticeable. Songs like "Soldado del Divague" or "Agua que Cae" became references of Paraguayan rock. That year they also shared the stage with important bands, like Catupecu Machu or Árbol, which opened doors for them.
