The band from Monterrey (in the Mexican state of Nuevo León) formed by Priscila González, Gustavo Maurico, both in charge of the guitars and voices; Boscop Benavente, the drummer; Marcela Viejo, who plays keyboards and also sings; and the fine bass player Luis Fara Al Farahel, released their first album, Wof, under the indie-dealt-with-EMI label Happy-fi Records. They introduced their debut LP to a small but joyous audience at La Victoria club in Mexico City. The show was a mixture of gurgling jubilation, dandy music and do-it-yourself fashion and lighting, they instantly became one of my I-recommend-to-see-them-live acts.

Wof, the album, is heroic, gutsy, childish and aggressively primal, it mixes indie rock with alternative dance and eclectic pop, always joined by a terrific bass sound. They autodefine their music with such words as: the caribean, whisky, cinema, smoking, fashion, friends, alter-egos, strawberry drinking yoghurt, second-hand clothing, among others.

According to their version Quiero Club started a few years ago in a radio show hosted by Maurico called “We are the Rock n’ Roll” when Priscila González made a phone call from her home and both started playing live on air, later they got together and made a song set by the anti folk outfit, The Moldy Peaches. They soon started to perform at several Happy-fests (a self-organized music festival by Happy-fi) and then Maurico moved to Barcelona for six months, when he came back the band reassembled into the current line-up. On december 2004 they recorded the track No Coke which gain some listeners in Mexico City and made them participate at the popular Vive Latino Festival and many other stages along their country.
