Los Claxons is a Mexican pop and alternative rock band from Monterrey, Mexico, initially formed in 2004. Its members include: Ignacio Llantada (vocals, guitar, rhodes piano), Mauricio Sánchez (vocals, guitar), Edgar "Cholo" Lozano (electric guitar), Pablo Gonzalez Sarre (bass, guitar), and Cesareo Castillo (drums).

History

The band started playing locally, resulting in their recognition around Monterrey. Signed to the label Movic Records, Los Claxons released their first album Sin Ganga in 2004 where hit singles like "Personajes" and "Mis Manos Necias" led them to expand throughout Mexico. This first album was recorded at El Cielo recording studios, a joint music studio located within Movic Records.

Ever since, the band has gained great exposure and popularity around Mexico, sharing the stage with artists like Maroon 5. They have recorded over 6 albums including Un Día De Sol co-produced by the band and 16-time Grammy winner, Thom Russo. The band also composed songs for the recently released Pantelion Films' Cantinflas alongside other notable artists including Enrique Bunbury, Aleks Syntek, and La Santa Cecilia.

The band has been nominated for two Latin Grammys:

Best Pop Album (2010)

Best Pop/Rock Album (2012)

Los Claxons has two releases planned for 2015, including a Live EP in the spring and an unpublished album at the end of the year.
