Timeline
Delvin "Pen" Cayetano (born 1954) is a Belizean artist and musician.
Cayetano was born in 1954 in Dangriga Town, Stann Creek District, Belize.
Cayetano is self-taught in the art of painting and music and claims his influences come from the native Garifuna culture and that of the Creoles.
These are the two largest ethnically black groups in Belize.
Cayetano began painting in the late 1970s at a studio in Dangriga.
According to Cayetano, the origins of punta rock came when he observed some younger fellows being rude at a ceremony to honor Garifuna pioneer Thomas Vincent Ramos in 1978 (Ramos had convinced the government of Belize to celebrate Garifuna Settlement Day in honor of the arrival of the group to Belize in 1802 and 1832).
They were singing songs in Garifuna with a worldly rhythm.
Cayetano built on that foundation to create the "Turtle Shell Band" in 1979.
Early band members included solo star Mohobub Flores and Peter "Poots" Flores (no relation).
The band built its reputation in and around Dangriga until 1982, when it held its first performances in Belmopan and Belize City.
Eventually the band appearance on Radio Belize and other groups picked up the sound.
He remained in Dangriga until 1990, when he moved to Germany.
He has showcased all over the world and become one of Belize's foremost cultural ambassadors.
Cayetano continues to record and was awarded by the National Institute of Culture and History for his achievements in 2003.
He and his German wife, Ingrid, returned to Dangriga in July 2009 and they opened the Pen Cayetano Studio Gallery 1 in August 2009.
Cayetano is currently married with three children (Malí, Beni, and Ibo).
His family band, "The Cayetanos", carry on their father's musical traditions.
Cayetano was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire in the 2013 New Year Honours.
A large number of artworks of Cayetano are on display at the Museum of Belize to celebrate its twenty-first anniversary since February 2023.
Pen Cayetano, with his Turtle Shell Band, invented punta rock by introducing the turtle shell and electric instruments to Punta, creating a new music genre that has become popular with Garifuna artists.
