Kalacawas

Kalacawas formed in Buenos Aires in the late 1990s, with siblings Facundo, Agustina, and Mariana Villa joining childhood friend Nicolás Ibarburu on drums. They put out their self-titled debut album in 2002, which included the song 'Quiero Saber.' That track caught on across Latin America, its straightforward pop-rock arrangement and earnest vocals connecting with listeners.

A few years later, around 2006, the band faced some public noise when 'Quiero Saber' was briefly accused of plagiarism, though the claims didn't stick. They kept playing and released another album called '10' in 2004. By 2010, they'd decided to take a break, and the members worked on other things separately.

In 2016, Kalacawas got back together and put out a third album, 'Despertar.' The record felt a bit more settled than their earlier work, but it still had the same basic guitar-and-vocals setup they'd always used.
