Hits like “María”, “Como Te Extraño” and “Futuro” had the audience singing along with fervor, while deeper cuts demonstrated the band’s versatility and depth.
Rubén Albarrán’s charismatic stage presence and engaging interactions with the crowd created an intimate and exhilarating atmosphere, while brothers Joselo and Quique Rangel, together with Meme Del Real brought an electric synergy, and their performance was a testament to their enduring influence and artistry. On stage, they are accompanied by Ramiro Del Real on guitar and Luis Ledezma on drums, who bring an added layer of depth and energy to their performance. Every note, every beat, resonated with the audience, leaving them in awe and craving more.
