Enanitos Verdes
Enanitos Verdes (formerly known as Los Enanitos Verdes) (lit. "Little green dwarves", roughly equivalent to the English phrase "Little green men") was an Argentine rock band formed in 1979 in Mendoza.
The band started in 1979, with Marciano Cantero (bass, keyboards, vocals), Felipe Staiti (guitar) and Daniel Piccolo (drums). That same year, they performed throughout the Cuyo region. Later they traveled to Buenos Aires to record a demo, which was never released.
In 1984, the band added two new members: Sergio Embrioni (guitar and vocals) and Tito Dávila (keyboard). As a quintet, they recorded their first album Los Enanitos Verdes, with the hit "Aún sigo cantando" ("I'm still singing"). Embrioni left the band in 1985.
In 1986, they released their second album, entitled Contrarreloj (Counterclockwise), with the production of Andrés Calamaro. The album included songs such as "Tus viejas cartas" ("Your old letters"), "Cada vez que digo adiós" ("Every time I say goodbye"), and "La muralla verde" ("The green wall"). Their third album Habitaciones extrañas (Strange Rooms) would arrive the following year. Produced again by Calamaro, it included "Te vi en un tren" ("I saw you in a train"), "Por el resto" ("For the Rest") and "El extraño de pelo largo" ("The stranger with the long hair").
In 1988, they did an extensive tour, alongside Miguel Mateos/Zas and Soda Stereo. Over six months, three of their concerts: Viña del Mar (50,000 spectators), Mendoza, Argentina (35,000) and Santiago, Chile (32,000), were attended by more than 30,000 spectators. In that same year, they released their LP, Carrousel. The song "Guitarras blancas" (White guitars) became one of their biggest hits off the LP. A year later, the group broke up, with Marciano Cantero starting his solo career. In 1992, the group got back together, without Dávila, recording the album Igual que ayer (Same as Yesterday).
In 1994, they released the album "Big Bang" on the record label EMI Latin. The album became a huge international success and includes their biggest hit, "Lamento Boliviano". The album also contains the song "Mejor No Hablemos de Amor" (Better Not Talk About Love) and the power ballad "Mi Primer Día Sin Ti" ("My First Day Without You").
In 1998, they released their album Tracción acústica, with the US record company Polygram. This album made them the first Argentine group and third Argentine artist to sign with a US company. This album was nominated for the Grammies in the category "Best Latin Rock Album".
They were part of the Watcha Tour 2000, which included seventeen shows along with Molotov, Aterciopelados, Café Tacuba and A.N.I.M.A.L.
