Carlos is a self–taught guitarist and singer inspired by Chilean folklorists, Violeta Parra and Victor Jara and the New Song Movement of Chile of the 1970s. Leaving his native Chile during the Pinochet years Carlos settled in Scotland. He has performed in many places in Scotland for 40 years making him the longest established Latin American performer in Scotland! Carlos has also performed in England, Wales, Peru, Italy and Sweden. He worked as a singer musician with the 7:84 Theatre Company in Toronto and Nova Scotia.
In the 1980s he founded and ran El Rincón Chileno at St John’s Edinburgh which had among its guests a young Martyn Bennet. He was a featured artist in the BBC Radio 3 programme the “World on Our Street.” He has also appeared in many concerts along with well-known Scottish folk musicians and taken part in music festivals.
In the 1990s Carlos founded FABULA (For a Better Understanding of Latin America). He writes poetry and has fused his own biography with a comprehensive history of the Chilean refugees and the Chile Solidarity Campaign in Scotland during the 1970s and the 1980s – www.carlosarredondo.com
“Arredondo has the kind of voice that could chant the Santiago telephone directory and still tug the listener”. Alastair Clark, The Scotsman.
