Banda Machos

In 1992, Banda Machos issued their second album, Casimira, with the title track, Leña De Pirul, La Culebra, Un Indio Quiere Llorar, No Soy Monedita De Oro, La Cosita and Traficantes Michoacanos becoming major hits.

This production included the essential touch of their name by what many call "El Macho" consisting of a figure with a hat and suit.

Hits on the album include Las Habas, La Más Bonita De Todas, El Puchoncito, Mi Otra Mitad, Esclavo y Amo and an interpretation of Bésame Mucho.

The title track, Ya Lo Pagaras, Muevete, Tres Minutos, Me Canse De Ti and Sentimiento Navideño were the most popular songs on the album.

The band continued releasing new material such as 1998's Vivir Sin Ella (which included Besame y Abrazame, Las Mafias del Norte and Sierras Milagrosas) and 1999's Rancheras De Oro.

Rancheras De Oro featured En Toda La Chapa, No Compró Amores and Recuérdame Y Ven, the latter two having a music video.

In the year 2000, Me Llamo Raquel, from their 11th studio album, Mi Guitarra Y Yo, took over radio airwaves in the United States and Latin America.

In that year during Mi Guitarra Y Yo’s promotional run, it became known that former vocalist Raul Ortega was returning to the Machos.

As a result, the lead vocalist José Morfin, Mauricio Bueno & Bernando Lomeli opted to leave the band and formed Banda BM3.

In 2002, they released a self-titled album with Eric Perez and Julio César Guerrero sharing lead vocals.

Hits included 20 Mil Heridas, Regalenme Aire, Sueños Compartidos and Chivas Del Corazón.

In 2008, El Proximo Tonto, the band's 20th studio album in eighteen years, was released with the title track, La Novia Coja and No Hay Problema becoming hits.

Banda Machos' "Zappa Mambo" was featured in the movie My Family, produced by Francis Ford Coppola in 1995.

This song was played during the campaign stop in which the PRI candidate to the Mexican Presidency in 1994, Luis Donaldo Colosio, was murdered.

Thanks to its album Sangre De Indio, Banda Machos was considered the creator of "The Ravine", a distinctive dance of the techno-band, as Jorge Luis Berdeja cited in an article in the Cultural section newspaper "El Universal" from Mexico in 1997, which refers to the band as an element of identity especially among Mexicans living in the United States.
