Timeline

1938

At the 38th Cosquín Festival, Pintos was granted the opportunity to perform three times on the festival's main stage.

The first occasion was on January 28, where he sang three songs from his first album.

The first of these was "Cuando llegue el alba" ("When Dawn Comes") (which he performed as a duet with León Gieco), the second was "El 180", and the final was the lead single of "Para cantar he nacido".

His performance met with positive reception from the crowd, at which point he was invited by the festival's organisers to perform twice more, on January 31 and then February 1.

It was on this day that he received the "special mention" from the folk music commission, and the Gold Award of the Cosquín Festival, presented to up-and-coming artists by the Argentine Society of Authors and Songwriters (SADAIC).

1984

Abel Pintos (born in Bahía Blanca, on May 11, 1984), is an Argentine singer-songwriter.

He started his solo career at the age of 13 with his album Para cantar he nacido (I Was Born To Sing), supported financially by León Gieco.

After the release of four studio albums, he started writing his own songs that marked a departure from his folk style.

Abel Federico Pintos was born in Buenos Aires Province on May 11, 1984, in the city of Bahía Blanca, but was brought up in Cutra Có, Neuquén Province.

He made his first steps into music at the age of 7, when he was chosen to sing at a commemoration event for José de San Martín taking place at his school.

In the audience was a representative from the municipal government who, impressed by his voice, invited Pintos to sing at another event commemorating the founding of Ingeniero White, his town in the south of Buenos Aires province.

He performed three songs at this event: one by Víctor Heredia, another by León Gieco, and the third by Horacio Guarany.

Following this performance he started to gain recognition, and launched his musical career thereafter.

His early career was boosted by a string of lucky breaks: first, tango singer Raúl Lavié travelled to Bahía Blanca on a tour called Tango en la Bahía ("Tango by the bay"), where he heard Pintos sing.

On that day, Pintos had a demo-tape of his recordings and gave it to Lavié who in turn handed it on to Pity Iñurrigarro, then producer for León Gieco.

Iñurrigarro organised a record deal with Sony Music through his producer Abraxas.

Pintos then went to Buenos Aires, where he was personally introduced to León Gieco, who then supported him and produced his first release.

Para cantar he nacido ("I Was Born To Sing") became the title of his first record which he made during the month of March in the ION studios, consisting of 18 covers of popular songs by artists such as Horacio Banegas, Carlos Carabajal, Peteco Carabajal, Raúl Carnota, Atahualpa Yupanqui, César Isella and Bebe Ponti.

The album's leading single was the title track of Para canter he nacido, for which he received awards at Argentina's most prestigious folk music festivals.

Pintos commented himself that his debut album was replete with expectations, anxiety and "excesses of adrenaline".

While retrospectively he sees it as an album that was not recorded hastily, he has since acknowledged that his approach to recording an album has changed since Para cantar he nacido.

1998

On March 1, 1998, he performed at Buenos Aires Vivo II, a show organised by the Buenos Aires city government, where he shared the stage with León Gieco to perform "Cuando llegue el alba" and "Para cantar he nacido".

Following the success of his debut album, Pintos turned to creating a second album: Todos los días un poco (A Little Bit Everyday), in which he was to infuse classic songs by popular performers with his own compositional style, with the aim of showcasing his own unique flair and vocal characteristics.

1999

The album was released in March 1999, under the executive production of Pity Iñurrigarro, Luis Gurevich and Roly Hernández.

Notable songs from this album included: Haracio Guarany's "Cuando nadie te nombre" (When Nobody Mentions You), Atahualpa Yupanqui's "La tucumanita" (The Girl From Tucuman), Cuti Carabajal's "La Sacha Pera", Eduardo Falú's "Tonada del viejo amor" (Melody Of Old Love), León Gieco's "Todos los días un poco" (A Little Bit Everyday) and a humorous take on a traditional Argentine folk dance by Horacio Fontova called "Que viva la chacarera" (Long Live The Chacarera).

The leading single, "Ojos de cielo" (Eyes of the Heavens) by Víctor Heredia, was recorded with the Kennedy Chorus of Buenos Aires.

Alongside him in concert and in the recording studio were his brother Ariel Pintos (lead guitar and post-production), his father Raúl Pintos (percussion), Diego Simonovich (backing guitar and post-production), Edgardo Peralta (rhythm guitar and charango) and Waldo Graff (keyboard).

2000

In the summer of 2000, Abel Pintos performed in several prestigious festivals around Argentina, including the 2000 Cosquín Festival and the Jesús María Festival in the province of Córdoba.

2001

He released Cosas del corazón (Things of the Heart) on December 19, 2001, which was made possible by collaboration with musicians such as Domingo Cura and the Bandoneon player Carlos Buono.

The record was produced by Martín Carrizo, and was recorded in Palermo, Buenos Aires.

Although Cosas del corazón was released with a tight commercial strategy, it did not achieve the success that Pintos has hoped for.

The main reason for this was that it was released two days before the economic crash and riots of December 2001.

Abel Pintos deemed it to be one of his best records, being a "hinge between the vibes of previous albums".

It was the first album which drew together influences from Central American music, and Argentine folk and rock music.

From Cosas del corazón onwards, Pintos started to develop a unique, eclectic musical style which would consolidate in later albums.

2003

By the end of 2003, after a hiatus, Abel Pintos returned to the studio to record his own songs and exhibit his development as an artist in his own right.

2005

From April 2005, pianist Alfredo "Fredy" Hernández joined his touring and recording band line-up.

2012

He rose to prominence with La llave (The Key), although the CD and DVD Sueño dorado (Golden Dream), which marked fifteen years in the music industry, was his best-selling record of 2012.

Along with artists such as Soledad Pastorutti and Luciano Pereyra, Pintos has been dubbed as a promising rising star of Argentine folk music.

He was awarded the Gold Gardel prize for his CD and DVD Sueño Dorado.
