Gypsy group composed of Raimundo and Rafael Amador, founded after the group Veneno was dissolved. Their flamenco, rock, and blues music gave rise to an unstoppable outlet which influenced many young musicians. Their aesthetic is close to that of Veneno. Musically they were a group that was widely acclaimed for their live performances, and this opened doors to flamenco sounds and rhythms abroad. The virtuosity of their guitar-playing and their relaxed attitude were well-received outside the world of flamenco. During the decade of the nineties they made fewer public appearances until Rafael Amador was left as leader of the group, and for a time he tried to keep up the band’s activity. After the group disbanded Raimundo began a prolific solo career. Rafael did not record again until he appeared solo on the album Viejo Patio (las 3000 Viviendas).
