Background notes
Archive material and source history
Acontraluz formed in Tijuana in 1996 with César Sánchez on vocals and guitar, Carlos Castañeda on bass, Javier Rodríguez on drums, and Omar Robles on keyboards. They mixed rock and folk with traditional Mexican sounds, which built them a following in those early years.
Their song 'Tres Tragos' became their most recognized track, a drinking song about lost love that some listeners found relatable while others criticized it.
They released their self-titled debut album in 1998, followed by 'Almas Perdidas' in 2000, 'De Carnes y Huesos' in 2002, and 'El Camino' in 2005. Carlos Castañeda left the band in 2004 and was replaced by Carlos Gamboa on bass.
