Charo Bogarín

Bogarín was born on 24 September 1972 in Clorinda, Formosa Province into a family of Guaraní descent. She is the great-granddaughter of cacique Guayraré. Her father, Francisco "Pancho" Bogarín, was a peronist politician who was "disappeared" by the military dictatorship in 1976. After her father's abduction, she moved with her mother and her sister to Resistencia, Chaco.

Bogarín formed what would become Tonolec in 2000 with Diego Pérez, a native of Resistencia who was living in Córdoba at the time. After spending several years researching Qom musical culture, they began experimenting by mixing Qom music with Mbyá Guaraní folk singing and electronic music. Bogarín has cited the influence of Chelaalapí Qom Choir, with whom Tonolec has collaborated several times. Much of Tonolec's music is sung in the Qom language, as well as in Guaraní.

In 2022, she was appointed vice-president of the INAMU (Instituto Nacional de la Música), an Argentine government agency promoting musical endeavors since 2012. As part of the institute's authorities, she has stated her intention to promote women in the music industry and safekeep indigenous musical traditions.
