In one corner of the city of mud and lime. And under the dim lights of lanterns, behind the walls have fallen many times and has been necessary to re-raise, lies a place, among many others, telling a town frozen in time, between modernity and the past, appearing as a giant museum evocations. That place is "The Sotareño" a music venue and meeting in Popayan.
The Sotareño opens its doors in 1964 Sarria Augustine's hand, rather than aping the fashion and the yearning for progress that existed at that time in the big cities became a coffee place that hosted the affair, poetry, and music. After the earthquake of 1983 that destroyed much of Popayan, The Sotareño became "bar, soda fountain, where it was sold from coffee to sausage. But once customers asked for a brandy and was taken and opened the door to the tango, the bolero and ranchera, as well as the old vallenato and salsa.
's music hits The Sotareño with stories that are still in force: love, loss, reunion and longing. This content breaks into a time vacuum where the acoustic images are loaded happen themed romantic scenes.
The destruction of space does not take physical memories, and loves that there are nested. Although sadly we see the ravages caused by the flames that burned part of the material things that filled the place with joy to note that, like the Cathedral, the nose, Caldas park, among others, The Sotareño , managed to become a symbol for the city of Popayan.
