AGAPORNIS: "Empezamos como un CHISTE"

Juan is one of the founders of Agapornis, the band that started the "cumbia pop" genre. Today he's still the drummer and also the manager. He's also a guy with many other talents: he's a polo fanatic and an architect. We talked about music, the band's beginnings, their deal with Sony back then, and what made them so innovative for their time.
