ABOUT

The concept is born in Tijuana in 2006, after two of its members, Jesus (guitar and vocals) and Victor (drums, vocals) meet after having shared the stage for several years. In this innovative project adheres later Luis (bass) an Manuel (saxophone) to create a new style called "The Califas Style", a mixture of Ska / Reggae / Punk / Alternative with the distinctive touch of what is now Palos Verdes.
