Based out of Echo Park, CA, Volumen Cero posses a diverse Latin American background with members hailing from Chile, Peru and Mexico. Representing a new generation of Latinos in the U.S, this bilingual and bicultural trio offers a fresh take on rock & roll. They fluidly transit through both Latin and Anglo worlds. Volumen Cero was born in 1998 out of sub-scenes of Miami. Andromeda was the first album VC released on Grita Records in 1998.

Their second album, Luces was released on Warner Music Latin in 2002. The album’s first single, “Hollywood” was the breakthrough track that began their journey into becoming a successful band to break from the U.S. Latin Alternative scene. The video for “Hollywood” featured porn star Ron Jeremy and Beto Cuevas. It was directed by Grammy-nominated director, Simon Brandt. In just a few months after its release, Volumen Cero earned its first #1 on radio in Santo Domingo and Puerto Rico. It held on16 weeks on top of the charts in the Latin Alternative chart of R &R Magazine.

In 2004, the band released Estelar. The first single from the album, “Autos,” spent over 10 weeks in the #1 spot and 20 weeks in the top 3 spots of R&R’s Latin Rock Chart which led to a Best Latin Rock Album by a Duo or Group in 2005 honor. VC also landed on “Los Diez Mas Pedidos” on MTV Latin America. They also made history when they became one of the first Latin alternative groups ever to be profiled on MTV’s Advance Warning, which aired on MTV and MTV2. The “Autos” video even charted on Billboard for MTV’s Top 40 Video Playlist.
