Aurelio Martinez



Born in 1976 into a family possessing a long and distinguished musical tradition in the small Garifuna community of Plaplaya in Honduras, at the age of six, he was already playing drums at social gatherings and picking up his father’s guitar as soon as he was big enough to hold it. Inspired by his grandmother and his father, Aurelio gathered a vast repertoire, which later enabled him to develop his playing and his own style.

As an original member of the Garifuna All Star Band, Aurelio has taken his Paranda music to stages in France, Japan, The USA, Mexico and neighbouring Central American countries. ( read more )
