The single is out now, the first single of CHETES was "Completamente", he is about to release the video for "Poco A Poco".
He made an awesome song with Meme(Café Tacvba) for a Mexican movie, the song is called "16 de Febrero".

Man, I have been a fan of Chetes since his days as part of Zurdok. Then when that band broke up, I followed him during his days in Vakero. Then that project went nowhere, and just a few months ago I realized that he had released a solo album. FInally! Why did it take him sooo long?
I have not heard his collaboration with Meme. Which movie soundtrack is it on? Anyway, I've been looking for his album, but so far I have not had any luck. Maybe when I got to Mexico in December I'll buy it down there.
I hope his recent Grammy nod will get him some exposure. He is an awesome singer/songwriter.

The song with Meme will be on the Sountrack of the movie "El Malboro y el Cocu". And yeah, the album is awesome, here in México the album is one of the best selling, it has a variety of styles, since the "Beatle-ish" sound from "Completamente" to the mariachi on "El Sonido de Tu Voz", its worth the money!
I heard that Vaquero is still on project, but right now, each member is having their own projects(Chetes with his solo album, Guardiola(drummer) playing drums with Zoé and making music videos and Maurizio(bass player) is producing bands like División Minúscula), I'm sure they will return and make a new album!

Chetes has just said on his official Myspace that they were done finishing the video for Poco A Poco, which should be released soon.

He doesn't get a lot of airplay on MTV S or HTV. I don't have the new MTV TRES channel, but my brother says he's seen Chetes's video on there.

I just saw this video on youtube and WOW! It was so rad. Very low budget, but cool nonetheless. It's so funny. And the song is awesome. I can't wait to get the entire album. I'm going to Mexico over Christmas so maybe...
I love how some videos are really expensive but they turn out like sh*t, but others like this have so much creativity. I guess with a low budget, you are forced to be creative!

If you are coming to México, you better wait until the 26 of Dec. to buy Chetes album, cause that day, it is going to be released a Special Edition of the album with Demo songs, live songs and videos.

Well if the official video is half as good as this one, then I'll be pleased. I can't get enough of this song. I've listening to it for the past 48 hours nonstop. Thanks for the info on the new edition of this album. I will definitely look for it. By the way, has Chetes been touring in support of this cd. More importantly, is he coming to the US? :)

He has been touring to promote the album, but mainly he has been touring in DF and here in Monterrey he made an acoustic performace/autograph signing in July, he said recently that in early 2007 he will be going to USA, Argentina and Spain to promote the album. And the "POCO A POCO" and the "16 DE FEBRERO feat. MEME" OFFICIAL videos have been recently released. POCO A POCO (Official Video):www.mtvla.com/canal/busca_y_baja/(in the section "Para Ver" select Poco A Poco, it is a very creative video made with cans.) 16 DE FEBRERO feat. MEME:youtube.com/watch?v=-aMm7-_Y11U

What's the name of the album again?
I want to look for it when I go to Mexico.

Did you checked both vids? Yes, finally. The official video for this song is ok, but not nearly as good as the one made by the fans. Nevertheless, this song is sooooo great! I love it! I really want the BLANCO FACIL album. I'm probably going to have to order it online, which I hate doing. Thanks for the links!

I don't know how much more I can go on raving about this song. I loooooooove it! It is so good. I still have not gotten Chete's BLANCO FACIL album. I'm ordering it online next week. Man, this song rocks! Chetes is such an original singer/songwriter. I'm crossing my fingers so that he tours the US soon.
