• Band made up of 4 musicians
  • Nacho (voice and Rhodes “Electric Piano”)
  • Cholo (Lead Guitar)
  • Pablo (Base)
  • Beto (Drums)
  • Sanchez (voice and guitar)

• The group was started playing 7 years ago but officially began playing and recording as a group 4 years ago. Their great chemistry and recent compositions that grew strong over time got them to create their first release album “Sin Ganga” under the record label “Movic Records”. This album was recorded on the “Cielo recording studio in 2004 and the record production people in charge where Memo Gil and Adrian “Rojo” Treviño

• Los Claxons have been influenced by bands like The Beatles to artists like Silvio Rodriguez. Their music influence goes from the extent of hip hop to ballads.

• This album for Nacho, Sanchez, Pablo and Cholo was a great achievement like it is for all those artists that see releasing an album as a dream. In this first album “Sin Ganga” you can hear the simplicity and musical quality that is hard to find today in artists.

• Los Claxons started growing thanks to the people who spread the word about the group. The internet was also of great help since it got this independent band to reach the different states of the republic of Mexico. Having sold-out arenas in places like Hermosillo, Merida, Tijuana, Cd. Obregon, Saltillo, Mexico D.F. and Monterrey. The first great opportunity was given when they opened for South American Pop singer Diego Torres in la Arena Monterrey to a crowd of +10,000 people.

• In 2007, Los Claxons, released their second album titled “ En Primera” where they once again have a recollection of moments, images, forms and sounds where they show a search to find love. The once again part of the production of Adrian “Rojo” Treviño and Kiko Lobo having Alberto Ramos playing the drums as a guest artist.

• “Plan Perfecto” is the title of the first single which released on the internet and played in the radio. Logging in to the record label webpage, www.movicreords.com , the single was available for free download days before the release of the second album.

• “En Primera” is released in September of 2007 with 14 songs written and composed by the same members of the band.

• As a plus in the album “ En Primera” there is some video material with an exclusive presentation of the “Cielo recording studio” where they play some of their most recognized songs like “ Mis Manos necias” which was placed under the top of the list of popularity in Mexico. Same as 3 other songs from their new production which includes “Plan Perfecto”. The CD and DVD show how Los Claxon are a top quality and great talent artists.
