Sol y Lluvia is a Chilean musical ensemble, formed in the 1980s that became popular as a result not only of its music, but also because of its firm opposition to the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet. The band is most famous for songs such as "En Un Largo Tour" ("On a long tour"), "Voy a Hacer el Amor" ("I'm Going to Make Love"), and "Adios General!" ("Goodbye General"). The band's music blends modern musical instruments (drum set, electric guitar, bass guitar, and saxophone) with traditional Andean or Chilean instruments, including the charango and zampona. The band continues to perform to this day.
