The band is based in New York City, where Shino works as a host on the radio program El Vacilon de la Mañana.
The group with fast songs like La Gallinita: That little hen, my grandma told me, lays fried eggs even if you do not believe it... And that little hen is a real piece of work, she dances and drinks rum and has a cell phone.
