Congreso is a musical band from Chile. Founded in 1969 in Quilpué, it is a highly acclaimed band with over 40 years of experience fusioning and developing Latin American music.

Began their career in the late 1960s linked to New Chilean Song movement, however with the advent of the military dictatorship and cultural constraints of the time, added to the great instrumental vocation of its members, they evolved into a progressive rock style, and then to a fusion sound that incorporated elements also from jazz fusion, contemporary music, pop music, and world music, in a style named by them as The New Latinamerican Music.

It is one of the most important bands in the history of the Chilean music, both for his refined musical compositions with lyrics of social and ethnic content, as well as by the good reception of the national and international public and critics. Formed together with Los Jaivas and Los Blops, is one of the cornerstones in the new Chilean progressive sound and the 'Chilenization of Rock' between the mid 60's and early 70's.
