Adolfo Mejía Navarro was born on February 5, 1905 in San Luis de Sincé, a small village in the department of Sucre that is known today just as Sincé. His parents were Adolfo Mejía Valverde, a guitar player, goldsmith and watchmaker, and Francisca Navarro Iriarte, a singer of a popular style of music with origins in African-American traditions known as “Tambora” or “Bullerengue”.
Since he was very young, Adolfo Mejía Navarro was captivated by the music he heard on his father’s guitar and he would later teach him how to play it and the fundaments of music theory.
When Mejía was 8 years old, he started playing in serenades and familiar reunions with his father and other important musicians from Sincé, among them, Manuel Romero, Marcial Martinez and Mariano Rodriguez.
