Mario Luis is a cumbia singer hailing from Argentina who served as lead singer for Aclamado Amistad before striking out on his own. Luis was born in San Genaro, Santa Fe, Argentina in 1965 and began his music career in 1983 when he took up the role of singer in the cumbia band Aclamado Amistad. He sang with the group for 23 years, racking up just short of 20 albums in the process, before leaving in 2006 to pursue a solo career. His first solo album was released that year in the form of 'Amistad o nada'. The albums kept coming, with 'Solo' following a year later and 'Tú y yo' (2008), 'Esencia' (2009) and 'Volver' (2010) following in quick succession. Luis barely slowed down into the 2010s, touring Argentina and nearby countries extensively. He released two more studio albums: 2011's 'Romántico y enamorado' and 'Amo y señor del amor' in 2012. In 2015 he put out a live album, 'En vivo en pasión', before celebrating his decade as a solo artist with the compilation '10 años junto a vos' in 2016. In 2019 Luis released the double live album 'En vivo en Teatro Colonial' and was nominated in the Gardel Awards for his album 'Entre amantes y enamorados', released in 2018.
