Cielito Drive | nl

Cielito Drive is a colombian rock band formed in 2005. Jose Re (vocals, guitar and programming) was borned in Caracas, Venezuela and grew up in Barranquilla, where he met Mau Barranco (drums and backing vocals) and Oscar Alford (bass and electronics) with whom he formed a band called “Cielo Drive”.

According to themselves, their first musical intentions came out of a mixture of ska, funk, punk, and flying kicks; all that, mixed with not much technique but with a lot of teenage passion. That is how they gathered a community of local fans that filled up every gig they played.

Since 2007, the band is based on Bogotá, where they started taking music more seriously and found new sounds by rehearsing a lot. They changed their name to "Cielito Drive" and met Richard Blair (Sidestepper) who co-produced their first EP “Viajero”, that was released on 2010.
