Ángel Parra Jr.'s inclination for music stems from his father's interest in him quickly learning the art of the guitar, even at the time of exile in Mexico. Together with his sister Javiera Parra, he has his first forays into informal music in a duo called Silhouette. However, it is not until his return to Chile in the late 1980s that he has his first professional job as a musician, in the jazz-rock group called Cometa, with which he gets to edit a homonymous album in 1987.
