With just over 6 years of experience, and thanks to 500 concerts all over the country, The Olestar went from being a timid attempt to mix as opposed genres like cumbia and punk rock to a reality which has already published three studio albums, EP two and a DVD.

In that context The sidewalk He interviewed Yasser Eid, -and the beginning guitarist who like their peers- "I did not expect anything of what is happening to us now", because "we started as a group of friends, having a good overnight, and we ended up as a group of friends with this project ".

It all started with the tropical classic "I never MISS", Antonio Rios; song that the band started playing, mixing with the sounds of punk and that the day was "very home-rise shape Youtube", as he counted Yasser, adding that "people codend and we gave forth".

Since that time the group was able to be on tour as it implemented Leon Gieco, Ushuaia to La Quiaca, also adding concerts in Chile and Uruguay, with a proposal whose main tool away prejudices.

Were they afraid at the beginning of the environment that could be found?

We had that feeling of 'what could happen'. Maybe people would take it well, or perhaps was the ability to think 'what do these thieves?’ but, as noted we do with respect and eager, also putting a thread turn, larding topics classic rock punk, That went away.

What memories were their first concert?

a video appears on Youtube called "Olestar, the documentary", which is something done in joke, but with images of our first recital it was in the Hall Pueyrredón, which is the Mecca of punk rock in Argentina. Hence we said 'if we survive this, which it is the most radical punk, and we are here to anywhere. So it was.

Then came our first date Capital and began to happen recitals and festivals Allsides (affectionately we pronounce Alcides). People started coming, We called and played everywhere ... it was crazy to play one day with Sergio Denis and the other with 2 minutes. It was crazy to have passed from that first concert to concert our people so, a diverse audience.

What public viewed from above the stage?

public punk, guys then maybe go dancing somewhere top ... is a melting pot of musical taste is terrific.

Did you start calls from colleagues when they ripped?

Our sponsor is Antonio Rios, The greatest of all. He when he heard the version of your theme called us to congratulate us and ended up making a video with him. Then we called Hernán disreputable that tells us when we will issue it. We are fortunate to have stuck wave with musicians from the tropical moved, we were treated more than good, even better than in the rock. We played four or five times in Passion Saturday, we becoming the first rock band that played there and then we were also the first band of cumbia in Vorterix.

¿Pioneers of a style feel?

We are the opposite of lovebirds and yes we are pioneers, The Olestar gave the cumbia rock touch.

We have several dates inside, we will go to Chaco, Missions, private events, Buenos Aires parties in February and toured Mexico comes with eleven dates, a dream really. We start at the most important meeting with tattoos and from there the tour was put together by the country of spiciness. The 2019 It will be a busy year.
