Bio

Formed in 2016, the band—led by Saul Hernandez on vocals and guitar, Germán Briseño on lead guitar, Raúl Bárcena on drums, and Atín García on bass—has built a passionate following across the U.S. With roots in Latin rock and collaborations with original members of Caifanes and Jaguares, their music bridges generations, blending iconic classics like “Afuera” and “La Celula Que Explota” with a sound that’s all their own.

Formed by Saul Hernandez on vocals and guitar, Germán Briseño on lead guitar, Raúl Bárcena on drums, and Atín García on bass, the band came together in 2016 and quickly began building a loyal following. Their powerful performances and authentic sound have resonated with fans across the U.S., leading them to tour extensively throughout California, Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington, Texas, Illinois, Indiana, Colorado, Tennessee, and beyond.

Their connection to the legendary legacy of Mexican rock runs deep. Over the years, they’ve collaborated directly with original members of the iconic bands Caifanes and Jaguares, including Alejandro Marcovich, César “El Vampiro” López, Federico Fong, and Francisco “Frank” Cortina. These collaborations have breathed new life into classic tracks like "Afuera", "La Celula Que Explota", "No Dejes Que", and "Viento", bringing a fresh yet respectful energy to songs that have defined generations of Latin rock fans.

Their live shows are often a powerful blend of original material and timeless anthems from the Caifanes/Jaguares catalog. When the opening chords of "Antes de Que Nos Olviden" or "Mátenme Porque Me Muero" ring out, the crowd responds with a mix of nostalgia and passion, bridging the past and the present in one unforgettable experience.

Through their music and collaborations, they continue to honor the spirit of rock en español while carving out their own distinct path—an evolving tribute to the roots that inspired them and the future they're helping to shape.
