Gloria Martínez, her husband Carlos Valencia and brother Miguel Martínez perform under their respective stage names of Goyo, Tostao, and Slow, with this the trio forms ChocQuibTown.

ChocQuibTown gets its name from the Chocó department and its capital Quibdó, a region along Colombia’s Pacific coast that’s known for its large Afro-Colombian population—and the place where all three of the group’s members were born and raised.

ChocQuibTown’s songs blend strong pop melodies and rapping with the Afro-Caribbean rhythms of Chocó and their handful of singles all average tens of millions of views on Youtube.

Over the span of a decade, the Latin Grammy Award-winning band has become one of the foremost voices for Colombia’s often overlooked Afro-Caribbean community.
