Their songs, which speak of love and misunderstandings, influenced deeply in the public reflected in them. Many consider this singer as one of the symbols of national identity. Having lost his father when just he was six years old, her mother worked as a nurse to keep it. Julio was very sickly in his childhood: he suffered bronchopneumonia, diphtheria, dysentery, and even had a beginning of infantile paralysis. He grew up listening to the duo Guayaquil, Olimpo Cárdenas, Carlos Rubira Infante, Duo Villafuerte, who marked an era in the national music and artists that influenced his vocation for singing. At seventeen he was known by his beautiful and warm voice, and participated in programs of Radio Condor. In 1950 he joined with two friends and they were touring the villages of Esmeraldas and Manabí singing trio. Once he was forced to return to his trade of Shoemaker to survive. Despite the criticisms, punishments, tears and entreaties of his mother, it wasn't able to quit his parrandera and bohemian life. The rise to fame occurred in 1955 with his vals Fatalidad, which was disseminated by all the radios of the Ecuador and the main stations of other countries. The recording of this song marked the beginning of his formal career and recognition. His international consecration arrived with the bolero Nuestro Juramento (1957), moment in which made several tours through Latin America: starting in Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Argentina, Uruguay and Chile. On his return to the Ecuador in 1975, tired, prematurely aged and worm-eaten by cirrhosis, he was booed in a performance in his hometown because his voice was no longer that of before.
