Terceto Yoyo

Terceto Yoyo was a Cuban son trio active during the 1920s.

It was formed by Heliodoro "Yoyo" Rodríguez (güiro), Jesús "Chuchú" Arístola (marímbula) and Celedonio Hernández (guitar).

[1][5] These are considered the oldest son recordings featuring the marímbula, together with those by the Sexteto Habanero.

[6] Their recording of the "El cangrejito" is the only one issued on CD, as it was included in the Hot Music from Cuba 1907-1936 compilation released by Harlequin Records.

[7] In the early 1960s, Chuchú, Yoyo and Celedonio briefly reunited for a tour promoted by the new Revolutionary Government; Chuchú had to retire from the tour for health reasons.
