The group members met and first began performing together in 2007.  They were inspired by their mutual desire to bring healing and joy through music, help communities struggling to survive, and to develop original material that expressed their Latin culture.  They decided to make music together, sharing their musical influences and skills to create a unique blend of Latin fusion.

While playing with a band in Mexico, Raymundo was discovered by a Canadian entrepreneur and was invited to continue his musical career in Canada where he has since played with various Latin and Rock bands.
