Broncco

Broncco is also known as B'rock . Vicente "Chente" Sibrián is the most important person on the Salvadorean metal and rock scene, he is considered a living legend. Vicente suffered poliomyelitis at the age of 1 (1949) that partially paralyzed his body. The disease didn't stop him, and he learned to play guitar on his own. In 1968 he started his musical career playing guitar in the band Thorns that split up in 1972. In 1974 Vicente and his sister Gema began Broncco. In the late '90s the paralysis progressed to the point he couldn't continue playing; for this reason the band split up. In later times, he was also the owner of a music school, and keeps supporting the Salvadorean rock and metal scene. He also hosts the radio show "Hablando de Rock" on Astral 94.9.
