Former Los de Abajo singer and guitar player shows his solo facet. In this new phase he explores new musical styles close to classic Rock’n Roll, with influences like Gene Vincent, Jonnhy Cash, Lou Reed, and The Beatles, as well as typical popular and “norteña” Mexican music such as “Los Tigres del Norte”, “Los Cadetes de Linares” and “José Alfredo Jiménez”, whose songs describe and interweave intimate feelings with the harsh urban reality of Mexico City, and show sensations from melancholic sobriety to nostalgic romance, mixed with violent “chilanga” reality that make this “rock’n roll crooner” “the urban country-man within us all”. Terán starts this facet after 14 years of playing and touring Europe, USA, Canada, Asia and Oceania, as well as recording two albums for David Byrne’s label (Luaka Bop): “Los de Abajo” (1998) and “Cybertropic Chilango Power” (2002). Two independent recordings, “No Borrarán” (2005) and “Latin Ska Force” (2002); the live album “Complete and Live (L.A./04)” (2004) and “LDA v The Lunatics” (2006), the latter, produced by Temple of Sound for Real World Rds., Peter Gabriel’s label. In 2008 Líber Terán launched, "El Gitano Western", his debut album as a solo player. By march 2010, he released his second album, "Tambora Sound System", which mixes music from Sinaloa with balkan, country and electro.
