Album Description
Kinky spent years honing their highly original sound, a fusion of Latin rhythms, Mexican regional music, electronica and rock n' roll. In their hometown of Monterrey in northern Mexico, they gave Chris Allison (Coldplay, Beta Band) a three song demo in the winter of 1999 and six months later he signed them to his Sonic360 label. The five man band Gilberto Cerezo (vocals, guitar), Uleses Lozano (keyboards), Carlos Chairez (Lead Guitar), Cesar Pliego (bass) and Omar Gongora (drums), exploded on to the international scene in the summer of 2000. Since 2002, the band has recorded three eclectic albums Kinky (2002), Atlas (2003) and Reina (2006)- been nominated for three Grammy's, composed music for films and played countless gigs all over the planet in front of hundreds of thousands, inducing dance floor hysteria and winning legions of enthusiastic fans. This collection brings you previously unreleased, and import only songs, remixes and live recordings.
