Editor's note

Carbona's soulful rock grooves and Monica Rivera's voice

A Los Angeles band from the late 1970s that mixed soulful ballads with rock energy.

For a quick sense of their sound, try "Sad is Getting Married" or "Do You Really Love Me?", they capture that blend of soul and rock pretty well.

Their debut single "Do You Really Love Me?" hit Billboard's R&B charts in 1979, and songs like "Sad is Getting Married" and "Felicidade Incondicional" show their range from tender love songs to driving tracks. Monica Rivera's vocals were central to their sound, which found an audience through emotional directness and rhythmic energy.

They started in Los Angeles in the late 1970s with Rivera on vocals, David Ortiz on guitar, Carlos Escobar on bass, and Eduardo Lopez on drums. They released albums like Heartbreak and Harmony in 1981 and Dreams and Desires in 1988, maintaining a mix of soulful ballads and rock grooves through the decade.
