Maldita Vecindad

mentioned on NPR Maldita Vecindad is my cousin's band! My cousin is the drummer-Pepe Paredes Pacho :)

He fled a hostile political climate in Argentina for Los Angeles in 1978 and began producing other musicians such as the Mexican band Maldita Vecindad y Los Hijos del Quinto Patio. Santaolalla is often referred to as the fifth member of another seminal Latin Alternative band, Cafe Tacuba.
