Timeline

1962

Guillermo Anderson (February 26, 1962 – August 6, 2016) was one of the best known Honduran musicians.

A singer-songwriter, his lyrics often touch upon themes of ecology (including exaltation of Honduras' natural landscapes) and social problems.

Guillermo Anderson was born in La Ceiba, Atlántida, Honduras, February 26, 1962, to Jorge Guillermo Anderson Sarmiento and Ida Avilés Sevilla.

Guillermo Anderson grew up exposed to the mixture of Garifuna, North American, British, and Caribbean cultures characteristic to the Northern coast of Honduras, which later provided the basis for his artistic style.

He attended the primary school at the Escuela Mazapán, in La Ceiba.

It was in this school that he began to write his first poems and songs and learn chords on a toy banjo and sang for the first time on stage.

In fourth grade Bill Stover, a teacher from North America, introduced him to American songwriters, like Paul Simon, Jim Croce, James Taylor and Crosby Stills and Nash.

He attended secondary school at the Instituto San Isidro, also in La Ceiba.

There he made friends with a cultural exchange student from North America, Gus Gregory, who introduced him to progressive jazz of the eighties.

Guillermo, with encouragement of his friend Gus Gregory, traveled to United States and studied at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

There he majored in arts with focus on Hispanoamerican literature, but he also studied music and acting.

He was introduced to composition and performance in the theater at the university.

With college friends, guitarist Mexico-American Eugene Rodríguez and Argentine Pablo Aslán, he formed a bassist trio called "Now".

This trio played traditional Latin American music and songs at college events, bars, and university spaces.

1986

He graduated from Santa Cruz in 1986 and subsequently worked in theater with "El Teatro De La Esperanza" in San Francisco, California, and El Teatro Campesino with Luis Valdez (producer of La Bamba).

One of his most important experiences during this period was to perform in a bilingual theater for immigrant children, which resulted in his concert and album Para Los Chiquitos.

1987

In 1987 Guillermo returned to Honduras.

Guillermo first received widespread recognition with his acoustic guitar and two Garifuna drummers.

He created La Ceiba COLECTIVARTES, an artist movement with other group of artists, and invited other artists from Europe and USA to perform different works on La Ceiba.

The most popular of these works was "Sabor A Sombra", based on Nelson Merren poetry.

After this, Guillermo started to make concerts and performances on festivals like "Aires de Abril" on Tegucigalpa and country sides of Honduras.

During this era, Anderson made his first records of songs like; "Retratos" and "En Mi País" that recorded on cassettes that sell at his concerts.

He often traveled to forest areas of Honduras, among them, La Mosquitia a kind of Central American Amazonia where he recovered their musical traditions.

While performing in concerts in Tegucigalpa, Guillermo Anderson attracted the attention of foreign service officials from various countries and received invitations to festivals such as the "Cervantino International Festival" of Mexico and a concert at the "Memorial for Latin America," in San Pablo, Brazil.

These two festivals gave rise to other invitations that propelled his career as a singer-songwriter.

The first release that Anderson announced in Honduras was "En Mi País", a song in which Anderson "tries to come to terms with returning to a country like Honduras, so full of contradictions."

Anderson launched his career from La Ceiba with a prediction that it would not be possible to do so from there.

But what seemed a weakness became a strength in the sense that a good part of the appeal of his work and the invitations he received from elsewhere in the world were because he worked from his roots in a city by the sea, in the little known Honduran Caribbean.

Another theme, "El Encarguito", is a song that celebrates the culinary diversity of Honduras and comments on the nostalgia of Honduran immigrants for their traditional foods.

This release describes the typical foods that relatives send to Central American immigrants, which sometimes end up seized at US and European Customs.

The song has become very popular among Honduran immigrants abroad.

It was inspired by Anderson's curiosity to test the diversity of food in Honduras and his experience living abroad and missing the culinary flavors of his homeland.

With a solid discography of 12 productions and an extensive career, Anderson was constantly touring in Honduras and abroad.

His music was and continues to be heard in Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, United States of America, Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Argentina, Cuba and the Dominican Republic.

In Europe he performed in Germany, France, Spain, Italy, England and The Netherlands.

In Asia he received applause in Japan where he made 2 tours of 30 cities.

He also toured Taiwan and South Korea.

The presentations were sometimes voice and guitar and other times an intense show that performed with his group.

Guillermo Andersons performances merged diverse music styles including parranda, punta, reggae, and salsa as well as latin jazz and rock, resulting in a style that has been described as "a combination of Afro-Caribbean percussions with contemporary sounds, local rhythms, and folklore of Honduras’ coastal regions."

His songs are stories are about daily life and struggles of ordinary people in Honduras.
