Born and raised in Mexico City, Rana Santacruz had considerable success with his rock en español band La Catrina. Setting his sights well beyond the insular Mexican pop scene, Santacruz made the move from Mexico City to New York City and began drawing on influences including the golden age of Mexican cinema, the magical realism novels of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, musicians like Tom Waits, the Smiths and the Pogues, and American bluegrass.
"Mariachi meets Tom Waits -- a marriage of the USA's and Mexico's musical traditions with healthy injections of contemporary songwriting. They feel like classics although they have been recently written." -- LinkTV
