Zimbabwe Biography

Argentinean seven-piece band Zimbabwe was formed in 1994 by ex-Zimbabwe reggae band percussionist Dario Ungaro and singer/guitarist Marcelo Delgado, after releasing a self-titled record in 1987 and Caminando en el Fuego in 1989. The new band’s debut album was called Cuesti�n de Honor, achieving platinum status in Argentina, while its song “Traici�n a la Mejicana” was climbing on local charts. After a South American tour, Zimbabwe produced two videos in Venezuela, directed by Dud� Scuderi, and a third one for “Loco de Atar,” directed by Jorge Rosales in Argentina. Cuesti�n de Honor was awarded by A.C.E. for Best Pop Record of the Year. Soon after issuing an EP called Seguir en la Ruta, GIT’s Pablo Guyot produced Zimbabwe’s A.D.N., which was released in 1996.
