Grupo Nectar Tragedy

This famous and outstanding Peruvian “cumbia” music band that is very popular in Peru, Argentina, Chile, and Ecuador, left a huge amount of hits and broken hearts.


The band was directed by the singer Jhonny Orozco. It was formed in 1995 and it had its most outstanding moment in 2000 with the song “El Arbolito” (The little tree) that reached the first positions in the ranking.

...and I found another video.

Here's yet another video.

Thats a real shame,realy unlucky!I wonder how many other bands have been wiped out with tour bus acidents?

I notice they had a theme with their vids!very pleasing on the eye!

Today is the Peruvian Independence Day. All videos in this thread are now gone.
