Huevos Rancheros were a Canadian surf rock band from Calgary, Alberta,[1] active from 1990 to 2000.
[2] Huevos Rancheros performed an instrumental blend of rockabilly, surf, garage and punk music.
Initially consisting of guitarist Brent Cooper, bassist Graham Evans and drummer Richie Ranchero,[3] Huevos Rancheros released the six-song EP Huevosaurus independently in 1990 before releasing the EP Rocket to Nowhere in 1991 on Estrus Records.
[8][2] After touring in Europe with Duotang,[9] in 2000 the band released the album Muerte del Toro.
They broke up soon after, although they have performed occasional reunion shows at benefit concerts to raise money for a journalism scholarship named in memory of former Calgary Herald music critic James Muretich.
