Yuri Juárez Yllescas (Lima-Peru 1973):
A guitarist, arranger, and composer began his career in 1996 as a guitarist for various groups of Afro-Peruvian music, folk, and fusion.

In 2000, Yuri becomes involved with Latin-American folk music for the first time with the group Sin Líneas en el Mapa. In 2004 he starts exploring the Afro-Peruvian Jazz current with Edward Perez, Rafael “Fusa” Miranda, and Juan Medrano Cotito.
In November of 2008, Yuri released his first album. Afroperuano with its own repertoire and important composers Chabuca Granda, Carlos Hayre, and Chucho Valdes, achieving great success in domestic and international criticism.
