Set apart both for their youth and location (one of few successful duranguense acts not based in Chicago), Los Primos de Durango wrote new rules for success in the world of regional Mexican music. The group consisted of nine members, all hailing from Vicente Guerrero, Durango and many of them still in their teens. They began performing regionally and made numerous television appearances preceding their recording debut, 2003's Nostalgia Duranguense and the single "Tocando Fondo." Their sophomore effort, Tal Vez, garnered a handful of award nominations, and their singles "Voy a Converncerte," "Tal Vez," and "Y Tu Te Vas" landed on international airplay charts. ~ Evan C.
