Pelo D'Ambrosio

Pelo D'Ambrosio—born Sergio D’Ambrosio Robles on December 17, 1965, in Huánuco, Peru—emerged from a musically rooted family, trained in classical piano before delving into folk, country, rock, and Andean traditions. He co-founded the band Pata Amarilla in the early 1990s, serving as lead vocalist, guitarist, and arranger, and released his breakthrough solo album Lejos de ti in 2010, featuring the title track which became a pan-Latin American hit covered in multiple genres. Throughout the 2010s, his music became a fixture in Peruvian television series and festivals, highlighted by his co-writing role on Susan Ochoa’s award-winning “Ya no más,” which won the Gaviota de Plata at Viña del Mar in 2019. In 2017 and 2019, he released regional anthems like “Al Mundial” and “Deja Todo en la Cancha,” connecting his folk-rock sound with national pride during the World Cup cycle. He continued his steady creative output with the live album Concierto Perú de Colores in 2023 and themed compilations Lo Nuevo and Lo Mejor de lo Anterior later that year. In 2025 he released the single “Promesa de amor,” recorded alongside Miguel Mansilla, maintaining his signature fusion of heartfelt lyricism and genre-fluid production, reaffirming his standing as one of Peru’s most enduring and versatile singer-songwriters.
