Nacha Pop
Nacha Pop was a Spanish pop/rock group active from 1978 to 1988.
The band was formed by Antonio Vega and Nacho García Vega (guitars and vocals), Carlos Brooking (bass) and Ñete (drums). They signed with Spanish EMI subsidiary Hispavox in 1980, and their debut album was produced by Teddy Bautista. Several albums followed, including 1987's El Momento, which was produced by Carlos Narea. Their final concerts took place on October 19 and 20, 1988, after which the group disbanded.[1]
In 2001, Alejandro Gonzalez used the Nacha Pop song "Lucha de Gigantes" in the film Amores Perros.
