Caramelito Carrizo rereleases debut album 30 years later, cherishing memories of her brother

Thirty years after signing her first record deal, Argentine singer and television personality Cecilia "Caramelito" Carrizo is bringing her debut album, "La música de Caramelito en barra," to digital platforms for the first time. The 52-year-old artist, who captivated a generation of children in the late 1990s with her music, shows, and theatrical performances, views this rerelease as a "caress to the soul."

Carrizo shared her excitement in an interview, explaining that the idea for the rerelease stemmed from fans' persistent requests to find her music on platforms like Spotify. The timing also holds personal significance, as December 2026 marks three decades since she signed with Sony Music. She specifically credited Hugo Piombi, the then-vice president of Sony Music, for changing her life and the life of her brother, Martín Carrizo, who served as her music producer.

Reflecting on the past, Carrizo became emotional recalling the exact feelings and sensations from that era. She recounted a recent moment on her daily program when her song "Bailemos" was played, instantly transporting her back to working with her brother and cousin, notebooks and pens in hand. Carrizo emphasized the timeless nature of music and its power to evoke cherished memories and experiences that profoundly shaped her life. The rerelease also includes her television hits "Caramelito y vos" and "La casa de Caramelito," which will follow soon.
