Enjambre


Enjambre is a Mexican indie rock band. It is composed of brothers Luis Humberto, Rafael, and Julián Navejas, their cousin Isaac Navejas, and Ángel Sánchez. Enjambre started in Fresnillo, Zacatecas, consolidated as a group in Santa Ana, California, and later continued developing in Fresnillo, Zacatecas, starting professional recordings in 2005.

History

In 1994, Luis Humberto, Rafael, and César Sánchez created a group called Los Cuatro Fantásticos in Fresnillo. Years later, after emigrating to the United States, they had to abandon the project, but once settled in California, they formed Enjambre in 2001 alongside their cousin Romeo Navejas. However, he would remain in the band for just over a year. The name Enjambre refers to a group of bees and is derived from the members’ surname: Navejas.

Among their most popular songs are: “Vida en el espejo,” “Dulce soledad,” “Visita,” “Tercer tipo,” “Manía cardíaca,” “Somos ajenos,” “Elemento,” “Divergencia,” “Cámara de faltas,” “Sábado perpetuo,” and “Impacto.”
