Over the decades, Banda El Recodo has released numerous chart-topping albums and hits, including “Que Te Ruegue Quien Te Quiera,” “Te Presumo,” and “Y Llegaste Tú.” They were the first banda group to tour internationally and perform at prestigious venues worldwide. Banda Los Recoditos, founded in 1989 in Mazatlán, Sinaloa, was originally formed as a younger counterpart to Banda El Recodo. Over the years, they established their own identity, becoming one of the most successful groups in regional Mexican music. Their breakthrough came in 2010 with the album ¡Ando Bien Pedo!, featuring the title track, which became a massive hit, topping the Billboard Latin Songs chart. The album’s success earned them a Latin Grammy for Best Banda Album, cementing their place in the genre. Known for their energetic performances and youthful sound, Banda Los Recoditos has maintained a loyal fanbase across Mexico and the U.S. With a mix of romantic ballads and party anthems, they remain one of the leading banda groups, evolving with new generations while honoring the traditional Sinaloan style.
