Carlos Torres Vila (musician)

Carlos Torres Vila (9 November 1946 in Los Toldos, Buenos Aires – 16 July 2010 in San Miguel, Buenos Aires) was an Argentinian folk singer.

He was revelation in the festival of Baradero in 1969 and the Cosquín Festival in 1970. He was one of the firsts solo to introduce the so-called "Romantic Folk", mix of traditional Argentine music and melodic songs. Under this slope, he broke several sales records in the 1970s. In 1977 he decided to dedicate only to the melodic music. His discs Consagración, Que romántico and Me vas a echar de menos are the proof. In 1982 his LP El retorno de Carlos Torres Vila marks his return to his style, that he never left. He died in the noon of 16 July 2010 in the Sarmiento Clinic in the city of San Miguel, Buenos Aires after a long illness.[1] He couldn't present his last disc edited in 2009 and called El Autor.
