Juaneco y Su Combo is a Peruvian cumbia band, formed in 1966 in Pucallpa, Peru. Juaneco y Su Combo was originally founded by the amateur saxophonist Juan Wong Paredes as Juaneco y su Conjunto. In 1969, Paredes handed over control of the band to his son, Juan Wong Popolizio, who subsequently renamed it "Juaneco y su Combo". During the early 1970's, the band's popularity peaked, and they became one of the most innovative Peruvian cumbia bands at the time and a pioneer in the jungle cumbia genre. Read more on Last.fm
