Prior to the release of their first full-length material Tiempos Raros (Devil In The Woods, 2020), the band self released two EPs and later the singles Tarde/Temprano and Carreta Furacão, which was voted number 1 favorite song in Reactor 105.7, in 2019 and also appeared on the Amazon Prime series Chivas as part of the official soundtrack in 2020. The single La Ciudad from the debut album Tiempos Raros appears in the official soundtrack for 2021’s highly successful video game Forza Horizon 5.

The outfit has toured across Mexico and the United States in many occasions, the most recent was their Fall US Tour 2022, around the west coast and midwest, through cities such as San Diego, Los Angeles (in support of The Melvins), Chicago, Seattle (Freakout Fest), Portland, Salt Lake City, Boise (in support of Cloakroom), Reno, Olympia, Kansas City and more.
