Versions turned to cumbia of songs by bands such as Kings of Leon, Radiohead, No Doubt and Daft Punk, but completely adapted to the folksy, playful kind of spanish that represents a big part of mexican culture. They also play unique interpretations of spanish speaking bands such as Los Teen Tops, Joan Sebastian, Jeans and Los Huracanes del Norte. 'El Comanche' and 'Larry Mon', the two members of the band, keep the crowd interactively entertained and make every presentation an unforgettable experience, a completely fun show where it's almost impossible not to dance.
