The Argentine band 1915 formed in Buenos Aires in 2004, playing a mix of tango and rock that didn't fit neatly into local radio formats at first. They kept at it, touring and building a following until their 2007 single "El Gede" caught on nationally. That song, along with others like "Los años futuros" and "Extranjero," helped define their sound.
Their debut album "Un Día Perfecto" came out after that breakthrough, followed by records like "Cayó la Cabra" in 2009 and "Sublime" in 2016. The group includes Marcelo Moguilevsky on vocals and guitar, Federico Matteucci on bandoneon, Pablo Severini on violin, Diego Vallarino on bass, and Germán Pablo Slorach on piano.
In 2018, 1915 was inducted into the National Tango Academy, a nod to how they've approached the genre. Their music pulls from tango traditions but feels like it belongs to this century, without the orchestral polish of older styles.
