Los Flamers are a music group from Mexico, formed in the mid-1970s.[1] They are known for their hits such as "El Chicle", "El Tizon", and "Camarón Pelao".[1] Members of the group include David Roman, Yoc Pacheco, Armando Vazquez, Fernando Lopez, Roberto Bueno, Sammy Sanchez, Many Dominguez, Paco Valerio, and Jose Pacheco.
Between 1978 and 1995 the group released a string of albums on RCA Records/Sony BMG. Beginning as exponents of 'grupera' they began their career doing cover versions of songs by US and British bands, and became one of the most popular cumbia groups in Mexico.[2][3]
