El Cuarteto de Nos

A long-running staple of Latin alternative rock brings its sharp wit, social commentary, and genre-blurring sound to Miami Beach for a rare South Florida appearance.

El Cuarteto de Nos performs at The Fillmore Miami Beach on Sunday, April 5, continuing a career that has spanned more than three decades and earned the Uruguayan band a devoted international following. Formed in Montevideo in the mid-1980s, the group is known for pairing sardonic, often satirical lyrics with music that moves fluidly between rock, pop, hip-hop and experimental textures.

Initially recognized for their irreverent humor, El Cuarteto de Nos underwent a creative evolution in the 2000s, embracing darker themes and more expansive arrangements while maintaining their signature lyrical bite. Albums such as Raro, Bipolar, Porfiado and Jueves helped establish the band as a defining voice in contemporary Spanish-language rock, with songs that examine identity, anxiety and modern life through a distinctly literary lens.

Their live performances are marked by tight musicianship and a theatrical edge, balancing crowd-favorite tracks with newer material in sets that emphasize both storytelling and energy. Set in the historic Fillmore on Miami Beach, the evening offers an opportunity to experience one of Latin America’s most influential alternative bands in an intimate concert setting.
