The single Carlos Gardel “El Porteño” is a tribute to one of tango’s legends and a continuation of Soulcare’s musical exploration of roots, identity, and belonging. Carlos Gardel, born in France yet a defining symbol of Buenos Aires, embodies an identity that transcends place of birth. His story – one of exile transformed into belonging lies at the heart of the track.
The song draws a parallel between Gardel’s journey and that of vocalist Yann Gaslain, whose French roots are seamlessly woven into the narrative. It’s a contemporary take on tango that preserves the spirit of the Río de la Plata while avoiding imitation. A track to listen to – and to dance tango to.
