Pimpinela are an Argentine duo famous for singing romantic musical pieces and known for their original singing style, formed by brother and sister Joaquín Galán and Lucía Galán. They have sold over 12 million records in Argentina and a total of 15 million worldwide,[1] making them one of the best-selling Latin music artists.
Lucía Galán Cuervo and Joaquín Roberto Galán Cuervo were born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Joaquín and Lucía are siblings of Spanish settler ancestry, more accurately of an Asturian father and Leonese mother. At first, they sang for family and friends, but later they each pursued a solo career. Joaquín joined the group "Luna de Cristal".[citation needed]
In 1981 the duo recorded their first single together.[2]
In 1984 their song "Olvídame y pega la vuelta" became a number one hit. Others followed, and as they continued to rise in fame, they developed a characteristic style of couples arguing and breaking up, rather than falling in love.
In December 2020, Pimpinela released the single "2020: El Año Que Se Detuvo el Tiempo", whose lyrics reflect on the emotional impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic that had been going for a full year at the time of release.
