El Sonido Callejero's latest single "No Te Puedo Olvidar" is well-representative of their sound: it starts off with a reggae-by-way-of-Sublime vibe overlaid with a Latin-rock accordion, and then picks up the pace and throws it all out the window in favor of some serious guitar riffage. The band-originating in Mexico and earning a lot of nods for their norteno/rock/cumbia/reggae hybrid-is touring in support of their latest EP, coming a few years after their first-and so far only-LP.
